Frequently Asked Questions

Copying other authors word-by-word? Will that really improve my writing?

Yes, it will! Copywork is a powerful tool for practicing grammar, vocabulary, and sentence structure. By analyzing the text you're copying, you'll learn how to use literary elements to create tension and mood in your own writing. However, it's important to also engage in other forms of writing practice, such as free writing and creative writing, to develop your own unique writing style.

I haven't heard about copywork before. Has anyone used it to learn to write better?

Yes, many successful writers have used copywork to improve their writing skills. Ernest Hemingway, Jack London, James Joyce, Flannery O'Connor are some examples of famous authors who have used this technique to master the craft. The reason why it's not as well-known is because it's often considered a traditional method, but that doesn't mean it's not effective. In fact, it's a simple and efficient way to practice writing, grammar, and spelling.

How often should I do copywork online to see improvement?

The frequency of practice will depend on your individual goals and level of proficiency. However, we recommend that users try to do copywork on a regular basis, whether it's once a day or a few times a week. Consistency is key to seeing improvement.
