If your writing opens like it’s trying not to offend anyone, you’ve already lost.
Let’s cut the crap: you’re not a diplomat negotiating a ceasefire between bored eyeballs and your ego. You’re here to grab people by the brainstem and drag them out of their content comas. You think Hemingway worried about “easing people in”? No. He punched them in the throat with “For sale: baby shoes, never worn” and let them choke on the meaning.
Most writers? They’re out here building pillow forts. Fluffy intros, bullet points wrapped in bubble wrap, conclusions that whisper “Thanks for participating!” like a kindergarten teacher handing out stickers. Meanwhile, the internet’s a graveyard of “helpful” posts that rot unread because they sound like GPT trying to replicate a TED Talk.
You’re not here to tiptoe. You’re here to detonate.
They’ll tell you to “start with value” or “lead with education.” You know what that really means? “Blend in. Be a backseat driver in a traffic jam of clones.” Safe writing is corporate training video writing. It’s the LinkedIn post that starts with “I’m humbled to share…” and ends with “Agree?” It’s the Substack newsletter that promises “5 tips to optimize your morning routine” and puts you to sleep by tip two.
But when someone smashes the script? When they say the thing everyone’s whispering in group chats but won’t post publicly? That’s the stuff that scalds retinas. That’s the tweet that goes nuclear, the essay that gets screenshotted, the hook that drills into someone’s skull and lives there rent-free.
