Resume synonyms
Synonyms for "Wrote" on a resume
"Wrote" is fine for a diary and thin for a resume. It names the activity but not the format, audience, or effect. Writing bullets get much stronger when they carry reach or conversion numbers.
When to actually use "wrote"
Use it for straightforward authorship where the document type is already clear, and attach volume or performance.
