Keep it simple, silly
There are some basic rules in writing. They crop up in every training event: go for clarity, simplicity and brevity. The maximum length of a sentence that should be memorised is 12 words. And, for it to be memorised, write the sentence simply, like this. The ideal sentence has just one idea or piece of information; use a direct vocabulary, especially when dealing with complex topics; avoid superfluous terms (like too many adverbs or adjectives) and steer clear of jargon, which simply clogs up your message; remember to keep your paragraphs short, and no longer than 15 lines; organise your information and try to follow the rule of WWWWWH (who, what, when, where, why, how) also known as Five W s and an H. Finally, be courteous to the reader and avoid spelling errors. Read and re-read your text to remove any irritating spellos .
