*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Ever heard of using PIE in paragraph development? We don�t mean eating a slice. Instead, we�re referring to the acronym used to refer to the process of �Point, Illustration and Explanation,� which you can use to properly address all the details of a particular topic.

Writing is not more on developing new words and stick them all together to form a one unique idea and then with these ideas, you can formulate the concept of your topic in a more convincing and interesting way. Writing is not more on how fluent you are in writing a language. Instead, writing means making use of your skills into a level where certain strategies and writing techniques are being used and applied into writing.

This paves way of the PIE process. if you wanted to develop more your writing styles and your capacity to draw a more unique concept for your content, introduce PIE in your writing first. This will help you greatly in maintaining the quality of your content. You�ll never know, this might be the answer that you long to search for.

As you can tell from the name, this entails stating your point, illustrating it and putting forward an explanation. It�s a very effective guideline to use, as it specifies all the steps that would be necessary to offer up a thorough discussion. To explain further about how PIE can develop your paragraphs more, check out these elements below:

Making The Point. Every sentence has a �point,� a particular topic it�s addressing. It need not necessarily be the first thing that your paragraph does, but it has to make its way through at some point (usually, within the third sentence). Also, always keep one of the cardinal guidelines for paragraph development in mind: restrict your paragraph to one point.

Your readers are after for the juicy content that you can write about the given topic. They are after for the necessary information that answers their query and most of all, they need direct to the point contents. They don�t want to consume most of their time searching for the right best point in your content. Worst, they might not read it further on if they can�t find what they are looking for.

Illustrating The Point. The illustration phase is where the writer provides supporting statements that reinforce the point, whether this is through presenting evidence, citing an authoritative source or other means. Take note of the word �illustrate�; it means demonstrating, rather than simply stating a fact.

Explaining The Point. To seal the deal, you�ll need to explain the relationship between the point and the illustration. Without an explanation, you leave an opening for the reader to misinterpret the information. Adding it in ensures you remain on the same page.

Like many things in writing, you�ll probably struggle just a little bit when starting with the above structure. Stick with it, though, and you�ll find, soon enough, that you�re identifying each phase naturally, making the process almost as automatic as using your proofreading software.
