The Hidden Dangers Lurking in Your Writing: What Assumed Facts Are Costing You
Ever caught yourself confidently typing out a “fact” only to later discover you had it all wrong? Yeah, me too—more times than I care to admit. It’s funny (and a bit humbling) how our brains love to fill in the blanks with assumptions that feel solid as rock, yet sometimes crumble like stale cookies when you take a closer look. Whether it’s mixing up a historical date, botching a famous quote, or picturing bananas growing on trees (spoiler alert: they don’t!), trusting these assumed facts can sneakily chip away at your credibility as a writer. So, how often do we stop and ask ourselves: “Am I really sure about this?” In an era swirling with misinformation, fact-checking isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s essential. Dive into why questioning your memory and double-checking details can save your work from embarrassing blunders and keep your readers glued to every word.
