Show transcript
Writing is most successful when structure, content and vocabulary are planned. We aim to use a range of narrative elements in our writing and to set an appropriate mood with them. We use a range of cohesive devices to connect ideas, including a variety of fronted adverbials. Short sentences, rhetorical questions and 'quick' fronted adverbials of time can add pace to a piece of writing. Dashes can add dramatic effect, often by restating the noun phrase that is being described in a different way.
