Write for the ear

Read your copy aloud

Turn Strunk & White on their heads

Perform an act of commission

Don’t commit verbicide

Streamline syllables with action words

‘By my grandma’

How to identify the passive voice

Six words is the new black

Summarize your story to find your focus

Help readers choose: Avoid option overload

Too many options paralyze people

Don’t practice AKK

‘All known knowledge’ obscures rather than reveals

Say no more

Write a message statement in 23 words or less

Snip your sentences: How long is too long?

How long is too long?

Make your easy to read

The easier your story is to read, the more people will read it
