Can you hear me now?!

Writing Clearly can make or break the biggest day of your life. When writing for a profession or simply a not to a friend it is vital that the reader can understand you. Most writers assume to write as they speak, but that is not always the best way to go since many people do not speak with correct grammar. Avoiding slang, run on sentences, vagueness, and repeating yourself is the safest way for your readers to understand what you have written. It is best to start off organized and write with paragraphs to space out the writing. Always re-read/revise your work, if you have the ability to let someone else read it over for you that is the best revision, since they are taking on the role of the intended reader. All in all it is best to understand the task at hand, put your ideas in order, write full and direct sentences, and keep the facts and opinions separate. With these tips in mind you are now on your way to writing clearly and successfully.

Joshua K Collaborative writing is key to success.


Hello everyone, for some reason I could not get the toondoo link to save on this page. So I saved it as a picture.

Collaborative writing is a group of two or more people that work on a paper or a piece of writing together. As you can see here, we have two guys at the office working together to create a perfect paper. One will take the outline for the writing piece, and than the other will piece together the draft. Than, with revision one will write the final piece as the other puts together other elements of the piece of writing to make the project great.

Don’t want to make a fool out of yourself? Well than learn how to create and deliver effective presentations.

Presenting anything in front of a crowd can be overwhelming but if you just remember a few key points you should be fine. These points are both for public speakers and making visuals like power points.

-First know your audience and try to direct your dialect to sound intriguing to that specific group.

-Next know what you’re talking about. Do research about your topic and make sure you keep it in craniological order.

-Try to look confident and do not fidget while you are up in front of a crowd.

-Make sure to talk loud and clearly, Using pauses and enfaces to show what’s more important or interesting.

-Keep visuals clean and easy to read. Don’t clutter with lots of works, use big font and only a few short sentences on each slide.

-After you have done the introduction and the body always follow it up with a strong closing. Recite what you just went over and leave the audience really thinking about the main point you were trying to make. And end with an up to date work cited.
