How to become an author for the Human Origin Project:
- Read articles on the Human Origin Project.
- Have a great idea.
- Research the idea, collect your sources and ideas into one document.
- Write a short (the shorter the better), 800-2000 word, article that brings the most important points together in a simple, relatable, and evidence-based storyline.
- Now Google the topic. What terms come up? What questions are people asking about this topic. Make a list of 3-5 of these words and use those words in your article. Pick one to use in the heading, and use the others in subheading where appropriate.
- Reduce the use of big words (no 4 syllables words)
- Reduce the use of long sentences.
- Reduce the length of paragraphs and separate them into short subheadings.
- Read it, does it serve the purpose you want to get across?
- Reference the four to five most important sources at the end of the article.
- Save it, let it sit for one week before opening it again. Read it, and ask yourself. ‘Does it resonate with the purpose you wanted to share?’
- If there are relevant images from the internet. Find them and hyperlink them in the text.
