Think of citation rules as a secret language. Once you learn this tiny one, you’re no longer fumbling. You’re confident. You can write about two brilliant thinkers and make them sound like old friends at a dinner party. “Johnson and Lee changed my mind about AI,” you’ll write, and then you’ll add the page number like a punctuation ninja.
The best part? This skill unlocks a superpower: you stop worrying about the form and start focusing on the ideas. Your writing becomes alive, your research shines, and you feel a little burst of joy every time you nail a parenthetical. That’s not boring—that’s tiny, repeated triumph.
