# Writing About Ideas
“When doing idea writing your goal is not to cover all of the details, all the possible caveats, all the possible alternative paths forward. You are trying to tell a coherent, [cohesive story](Cohesive%20Narrative.md) with narrative momentum, that in the end will give the reader another tool to use in trying to build an understanding of the world.” - Cal Newport
