Using "Proper" English


Modern informal culture doesn't always encourage proper English. Texting, e-mail and social media demand short, quick bursts of language, which leaves the rules of spelling and grammar in the dust.

But proper English is necessary for many writing tasks in life. Don't forget to take a time out from text messaging when writing business communications, school essays, or filling out an application.

And if modern life has left you unsure about the rules of proper writing, The Write Ink can help you brainstorm, compose, outline, write, edit and/or proofread just about any text. Contact us!

Spreading the Word

When you are a creative individual, you often are immersed in your work. I have spent many years watching my artist and musician friends creative beautiful pieces of art or inventive songs, but often these talented people don't know how to take the next step.

It's sort of the old "If a tree falls in the forest, does it make a sound" sort-of-thing. If you create art, it definitely fulfills an inner personal need. But getting it to make a "sound" in the world can take your creation to the next level and heal of soul of others.

Find out how to leap off the cliff and get the word out in this special article I wrote for Yahoo! Voices.

The Write Ink can also help the process along: Do you need a press release, or help deciding how to approach getting publicity for your art, music or event? Do you need an artist biography? Or if you decide to pen these items yourself, do you need someone to edit or proofread? Do you advice on using social media or contacting the media? Contact me at kelliewrites3@gmail.com.

Spread the word about your talent, and others will listen!
