© 2024 Sociedade Brasileira de Quimica. All rights reserved.We share our consolidated views, long-term experiences, and best tips for effective scientific writing. After writing hundreds of manuscripts and thus having battled and succeeded in this "mine-field", and knowing the importance of guidance for successful science communication, particularly for beginners, we have tried to introduce readers to the art of scientific writing, from A to Ω. To help less experienced scientific writers to learn quickly and overcome some initial barriers, avoiding common mistakes that we ourselves have also made, we discuss the most important techniques we have used in trying to write clear, comprehensible, and concise manuscripts that are as attractive and impacting as possible. This guide therefore offers crucial tips and concepts - from the very first words, initial draft, and on to submission, "battles" with reviewers and finally to acceptance and publication. The ethical use of artificial intelligence tools, along with some best practice suggestions for their application, is also presented and discussed. In the end, readers should have a comprehensive picture to help them understand basic manuscript structures and major features, habits and tips that help ensure excellence in scientific writing.
