I’ve found my ability to communicate clearly has improved in my writing. You can proofread when you type, but not so much when you speak. People want to know what the point/goal is so they can make a decision about how to respond. Without it, people leave confused.

This is my favorite line in your blog: “You don’t need to write a lot or use big words to sound smart.”

I agree with you. As we usually say in college, what are all these (long essays, reviews, journals) for? It doesn’t mean that a short report would be insignificant. And neither would long essays would be synonymous to interesting and well thought out assessment of a task. It just doesn’t go that way.

Using the active voice is definitely the best way to write. The reader requires less energy to read your work and often times you need less effort to compose it.

Though I do find myself taking a bit of extra time to clean up emails before sending them, it’s worth it. Thanks for this post. There should be loads more like it.
