Writing tips:-
1.Be concise, but tell all you need. The right length is 1000–2000 words, 1500 is a good tradeoff.
2.Keep it simple. Speak like you had to explain it to your grandmother.
3.Short paragraph
4.Use headers h1,h2 to organize article sections
5.Go to the point step by step. Never take shortcuts.
6.Don't trust yourself, use a proofreader.

4.Use headers h1,h2 to organize article sections

A quick addition to this - because Forem designates the h1 tag to the title of the page, articles should use h2 and beyond tags for accessibility :)
