Do this before writing: build the audience avatar

Yeah, it sounds like corporate nonsense.

But it’s not.

It’s just: who is this for, exactly?

Not “everyone.” Not “creators.”

More like: “smart viewers who hate fluff and want the real mechanism.”

Because when you know who you’re talking to, you stop writing filler “just in case.”

And you stop explaining obvious things like the viewer is slow.

You said it in your transcript world perfectly: the best work assumes intelligence.
