Short articles on statistical subjects appear in many places - blogs, magazine columns, op-eds, newsletter articles, and more. This presentation provides the fundamentals of writing short pieces in statistics. Topics include concept screening and development, article design, interview articles, editing, and some of the different voices for writing - technical, informative for a general audience, and persuasive. The author will share experiences and lessons learned from five years of writing the AMstat News monthly column Stats4Good.
