Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Measure the neck. Find a chest measurement. Take a sleeve measurement. Measure the waist. Find the inseam. Take any other measurements necessary.

Answer: Use your measuring material on your own neck or the neck of another man to measure the circumference at the base of the neck.  The measurement should be taken about an inch below the Adam’s Apple.  Place a finger underneath your measuring material to accommodate extra room and comfort for a fitted shirt collar. Measure around your own chest or another man’s chest by wrapping your measuring material around the back over the shoulder blades, under the armpits, and across the fullest part of the chest.  The chest should not be flexed or sunken in but rather comfortable and relaxed, with the measuring material held snugly against the skin while exhaling. Sport coat or suit jacket measurements will also include a letter after the chest size number. A Regular (R) typically fits men 5’7” to 6’, while a Long (L) fits 6’1” to 6’3”. Measure the length from the shoulder joint to the wrist bone to find the right length for a shirt or jacket sleeve.  For a shirt measurement, bend the elbow to accommodate for movement. For a jacket measurement, measure from the outside edge of the shoulder down a straight arm to where you want a jacket sleeve to end. Take a waist measurement by holding your measuring material around your or another man’s torso, just above the bellybutton.  Make sure that you are in a relaxed posture and breathing out, not flexing or sucking in the abdomen when taking this measurement, or you are instructing the man you are measuring to do so. Note that you may want to take a measurement at the hip, closer to where a waistband would come to, if you are measuring for trousers. Measure from crotch to ankle along the inside of one leg to find the inseam on yourself or another man.  If you cannot receive help taking this measurement on yourself, find the length on a pair of pants that fit you very well. Typical men’s pants sizes list two numbers: the first is the waist measurement and the second is the inseam. Find any other measurements that a sizing chart or clothing pattern calls for using your measuring material.  Make sure you take measurements from the fullest part of the body where you are measuring. You may need more measurements like wrist size, shoulder width, seat, and shirt/jacket length to fully fit a custom-made suit.

Answer: Who is your audience? Is the tutorial meant for beginners or for advanced users? Consider what additional information your audience might need to understand your tutorial. Even the best writer needs to read a piece several times over to catch all their errors. Try to set the article aside for a few days and then go over it again so that you can look at it with fresh eyes.  Check for the basics, like spelling and grammar. Make sure the tutorial flows logically and is easy to understand. Consider having another person look at your tutorial to see if they can spot typos. They can also tell you if there is anything else you need to add to the tutorial to make it clearer. You can publish your tutorial on your website, wikiHow, or on your blog. If you made a video tutorial you can upload it on YouTube. Just because your tutorial is published doesn’t mean that you are done. Once you get comments, it should be clear that there are more ways to improve on your article. Pay attention to comments and consider where you can add or subtract to the tutorial to answer readers’ concerns.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Groom your hands and feet. Make a hair appointment. Figure out how to get there. Schedule the party in your planner.

Answer:
Finger nails can play a big role in your overall look. Before the day of the party, make sure you clean up your fingernails. This includes trimming your nails and removing old nail polish.  If you are wearing shoes that show your toes, be sure to clean up your toenails as well. Girls, try finding a pretty nail polish shade that compliments the outfit you will be wearing. If you have not had a recent haircut, at least in the past six weeks, be sure to make an appointment so you can trim off any split ends or shape up your current style. If you dye your hair make sure you touch up your roots. Planning your transportation will prevent any unnecessary stress when getting ready for your party. If possible, try carpooling with a friend who is also going.  See how far away the party is so you can leave yourself plenty of time to arrive. If you are wearing a more detailed hairstyle with products, take a car to protect your hair. Depending on where the party is can help you decide to walk, ride a bike, take public transportation, or drive. Find out if there is anything already happening in your schedule the day of the party that you need to arrange for. You may also want to write down the date of the party to prevent the conflict of double-booking yourself. If needed, plan for a babysitter in advance.
