Finding your angle · 8 guides

How do I find an angle no one else has?

When a story breaks, everyone in your niche covers the same facts. The difference is the angle: the claim you own before you start writing. We treat angle as a decision made at story selection, not a flourish added at the end, so your take is yours and not the consensus everyone else will also publish that week.

Guide

Decide When a Story Should Not Become a Short Post

Use a dependency check to decide what can stand alone, what needs a companion explanation and what should stay in its original form.

Guide

Use a Two-Sentence Pitch to Decide What to Report Next

A short pitch template that joins a reader decision to an evidence path, with examples of what to report, narrow, update or park.

Guide

Turn an Interesting Angle Into a Reported Claim

Use an evidence ladder to separate a promising interpretation from a finding you can support, then set a clear drafting threshold.

Guide

Map a Publication Archive to Find Your Own Reporting Gap

Use an archive matrix to compare reader questions and evidence, then choose a reporting gap you can serve without copying another publication.

Guide

Use a LinkedIn Post to Test a Reporting Question

A short post can expose missing context before you draft. Read the replies as reporting leads, with a worksheet that avoids treating reach as proof.
