Yesterday I got a notice from my son’s school around 6am telling us the entire 4th grade to stay home + do independent study. Now that has been extended through the weekend. All because the teachers were “exposed” to Covid. Not because they tested positive. This is insane.

Why it worked

Follows a clear Hook → Context → Landing shape, so the reader always knows where they are.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.
Quotes someone directly, which makes the moment concrete rather than summarised.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Context → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal
Written for: Founders, marketers and operators
