YOU CAN BE A GOODER WRITER - JUST FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE TIPS:
Avoid clichés like the plague - they're old hat.
Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are unnecessary.
Do not use a foreign word when there is an adequate English quid pro quo.
Exaggeration is a billion times worse than understatement.
Never repeat yourself, or say again what you have said before.
Be more or less specific.
Don't forget to remember that a preposition is a word you should not end a sentence with.
Proof-read carefully to see if you any words out.
And (seriously) always give credit where it's due if you borrow original material and you know the source - these tips were from www.plainlanguage.gov!
