1. Be creative, innovative and non-repetitive: It is boring to read the same stuff over and over again. The story or article should hold the reader’s interest and keep them guessing the story that is being narrated.
2. Astonish/surprise your readers: Write something that shocks or surprises the readers. Something that they discuss, share and narrate with their family and friends. Something that makes them curious and inquisitive.
3. Give your best: Commitment is the key for any success, says Paul David Pope. Do your best and leave the rest. Always start the story with the best line or information. This not only attracts the readers but keeps them engaged in your work.
4. Short and crisp writings: Being verbose doesn’t serve any purpose rather tends to make readers tedious and they are overwhelmed.
5. Transitions are important: Transitions take readers from one point in the story to the next. Hence they need to be effective and are very crucial.
6. Sentence construction: Needless to say any form of writing needs to have correct grammar, punctuation and proper sentence constructions. The work should not appear to be dull, boring and monotonous.
7. Simplicity is the key:  According to David Paul Pope, writing is a reflection of your soul and thoughts. The simpler and clearer it is the higher impact it will generate.
8. Active verbs: It is simple and straight to read and write using active verbs.
9. Make it fun: Whatever you write should not be serious or mundane. Make it fun-filled, entertaining yet equally informative and crisp. Usage of puns and other forms of figures of speech help achieve this.
10. Consistency and a proper structure: These are the backbone of any written piece of work.

Paul David Pope is also a philanthropist and is actively engaged in different charity works.
