Summary:
We often think of writing as being about choosing individual words or constructing effective sentences. These things are vital, naturally, but sometimes we are told our texts "don't make sense" or that they are "hard to read." There can be many reasons for this, but one of the most crucial is coherence. If a text has coherence, the ideas in it appear in a way which seems logical to its intended reader. In a coherent text, the ideas are in the right order, the ideas are explained and exemplified just enough, and the ideas are linked together clearly.
