Writing

Whatever your profession, writing well is an indispensable asset. But writing well doesn’t require literary perfection.

Don’t worry so much about grammar and word choice; concentrate on writing persuasively. Sometimes, that requires an eye for structure and form. But more often, persuasive writing is about being colloquial.

Writing isn’t about spelling correctly and following rules; it’s about conveying information (or emotion).

That requires writing clearly and intelligently. Be playful if it helps convey your idea. Make up words if you need to.

Disclaimer: I am not a good writer, just a mediocre storyteller.
