THE SHORT ANSWER

Line 1 sums up the week in a sentence. Then three to five numbered items, one line each, a link after it when there is one. Close with what to watch next week. As slides, one item a page.

An example.

EXAMPLE — written for a made-up local garden centre.

Llocal garden centreExample · Weekly roundup

This week at the nursery: the first frost, and the bulbs are in. 1. Tulip and daffodil bulbs are on the tables — plant before the ground freezes. 2. The café's winter menu starts Monday. 3. We are collecting old pots for reuse — leave them by the gate. Next week: Christmas trees arrive on Friday.

The mistakes to avoid.

  • More than five items.
  • Items with no detail (“lots happening!”).
  • No reason to come back next week.
