		<description>Hi Michael,

I agree: clear thinking is a prerequisite to clear writing, and different people respond to different triggers and emotional appeals. In the planning stage it&#039;s crucial to clarify your thoughts about what you&#039;re trying to achieve and who you&#039;re targeting your writing at.

Thanks for your comment,

Matt.</description>

		<description>The planning part is often overlooked and crucial - the essence of persuasive writing is clear thinking. Another key benefit of clear thinking is avoiding the &quot;kitchen sink&quot; pieces - trying to sell all things to all people.

		<description>good stuff, man... I always think writers block, or ineffective copy, comes more from a lack of planning than from poor execution. you gotta have a good foundation to build a good house. 

however, I will say this - words (both big and small) are an important part of constructing the message you talk about. I agree that the goal is not to impress readers, but sometimes, using impressive words can serve your purpose.</description>
