================== ARTICLE START ==================
You're wondering about that title, aren't you? That's what
writing good headlines is all about. You need to make people
wonder where you're going with the idea. Uh-oh...

I'm losing my focus!

Ha! I just showed you what I want to discuss.

Focus is keeping your eye on the ball. It's not writing about
the optimal condition of golfing fairways when you're writing
about an optimal swing. The fairway has nothing to do with the
swing--the aim, the position of the ball, yes, but NOT the
swing. Right?

Why I said you need a bird's eye view in my title is actually
counter to what that really means. Rather than writing about
everything you might see from a high vantage point, you need to
narrow your little birdy eyes so that you see only what's in
front of you--your topic. You must FOCUS.

Let me give you an example of narrowing to a suitable focus:

When you're writing about a popular band for teenagers, what
can you write about?

Here are some aspects:

The music
The band members
Fans
The musical genre and where the band's music applies
Anedecdotal information about the band
Their music videos
And on and on.

OK. Let's take the first example. Say you're writing about
Evanescence. You can write about the way that Amy Lee sings,
how Ben Moody plays, their anthem, "Bring Me to Life," or
anything directly pertaining to their music.

When you start writing about where they come from, biographies
of band members, direction of their music videos, or anything
that ISN'T strictly about their music, you've lost your focus.

Stick to one topic. Maintain focus. No tangents. Keep your mind
glued to the subject and write only about one thing. Everything
else you may be tempted to drag in can be new articles. How
cool is that?
