Write Well

For years, Judge Mark Painter has been helping judges and lawyers clean up their writing. Now those same skills are available to businesspeople and other professionals in Write Well. Write Well gives you some fast and easy ways to improve your writing. You will find fixes to common writing errors, pointers to help you improve your sentences and paragraphs, and ways to make your documents look better and be more readable. Writing is a skill that can be learned-not that any of us can learn to be Shakespeare or Hemingway-or Elmore Leonard. But we don't need to write fiction; we need to write business or professional communication. And we can substantially improve our writing by learning a few skills, a few tricks, and unlearning some false "rules" that get in the way of good writing.
