Having enjoyed reading your
biographical, They
can't take that away from me... I
would love to post your article (for my) course for
seniors entitled Autobiography and Journaling ... and
let them read your article as a good example of what
I call the reader's writer, clearly expressed and easy
to read. (Howell)
The French language has
always appealed to me ... so I enjoyed Lavinia's
experiences en
France! (Di Sullivan, Perth, Australia)
I am an American and an
expat here since 1990. I have been a subscriber to Writing
Tip for a few years now and look forward to the Friday
editions. I archive by creating topics of the tips
relevant to me and often refer. (Mary, Lagos, Nigeria)
WRITERS!
Write
Your Own Best Seller!
This
year, don't just read a best-seller ... Write
your own using the software program that works
in the same way J K Rowling writes her Harry
Potter novels!
Who said Aussies would
bet on two flies crawling up a wall? Now I know
better! (Bill Denham, Chicago, USA)
I enjoy reading your page
every week, Jennifer, it's never boring and there's always
something to bring a smile to my face! (Kenny Dima,
Tenerife, Spain)
Great newsletter -
originally found this site after searching for
clarification on a contentious
point amongst work colleagues. Just had to look at old
issues and now look forward to Fridays (Juliet Wallace,
Manchester, ENGLAND)
How often have you heard someone
complain, "I know what I want to say, but I can't write it down?" ...
This question introduces visitors to Write 101 professional writing services, an
Australian enterprise that not only offers tutorials for students of all ages,
writing and editing skills, but also tips for keeping family relationships
healthy.
Director Jennifer Stewart spent 20 years teaching high school English and
History, with an eye toward preparing students for university entrance. She's
always loved finding the best ways for students to learn...and to prepare them
for many of Real Life's little surprises.
One doesn't see many graphics other than the tasteful header. Stewart uses
Text as graphics, in a sense. Fine formatting and layout, and strong, effective
Words and phrases. Plenty of helpful links, and by scanning them, one sees that
she offers credit card services via a secure order form. She also has an
"About Us" section and a Privacy Policy.
Stewart's home study concept reveals the wave of the future: studying via the
Internet with a definite, provable outcome. Visitors quickly grasp her
dedication to excellence in writing, and the tools to make it possible for
children, teens, and adults ... business people who want to express themselves
clearly ... Web site owners who need to learn (or re-learn) the basics of good
communication.
On clicking through the site, I came across the phrase, "Don't be a
business failure ..." Hmmm. Another marketing program? Not at all. Read on:
"Thousands of businesses closed down their websites last year and thousands
of business people lost their income. Why? One reason is that they failed to win
their customers' confidence ... A website that is error free in terms of
spelling punctuation, and grammar tells you that this person is someone who pays
attention to details, someone who cares about presenting a professional image
and is someone you could trust with your business."
This segues into protecting one's investment by enrolling in the Basic
Language Tutorial. Stewart never patronizes, but she never dodges the issue:
brush up on those elements of language the viewer may have forgotten ...
"as a job applicant, give yourself an unfair advantage over other
applicants..."
A freelance writer, editor, copy writer, and Web page editor, and more,
multi-talented Jennifer Stewart has a great deal to offer the Internet
community. Her site sets a high standard and offers a quality product at very
reasonable rates. I give her an "A+" for effective presentation and
for having excellent subject matter. Find the site at www.write101.com
