Being a proficient writer is essential to being seen as a professional. Whether you are sending off a quick memo, Tweeting out a new promotion or writing a proposal, bad grammar will confuse and, ultimately lose, your audience. So in case your writing leaves people feeling as if they are decoding a secret message, we’ve compiled a few tips and tricks to help you write like a pro in no time.
- The more you write the easier it becomes to consistently turn out clear and concise messaging.
- Read what you’ve written out loud, it helps to know what other people will “hear” when they’re reading.
- When your experiencing Writer’s Block, try a Fast Write session. A Fast Write is when, preferably with old fashioned pen and paper, you write until you get an idea. Your pen should not stop, write everything that comes to mind about your project or about anything at all; if you have to write “I don’t know what to write” a few times then do it! You’ll be full of ideas in no time.
- The more you read the better you write, read books, articles, tweets, status updates, anything you can get your hands on.
