Write with Authority and Inspire Trust - from PureBlogging

Learn to Write with Authority and Inspire Trust. Lynn Terry, the universal force behind Self-Starters Weekly Tips sent this link out in her latest weekly tips.

This article written by Michael Martine and posted at PureBlogging, is an in-depth look at the information and techniques needed to focus your writing to increase readership and monetization efforts.

High on the lists is, "Know what you're talking about in the first place." Okay. "Prove you have experience by relating it to your audience." Ditto. "Begin with a strong lead." I need to work on that one. "Remove qualifiers from your language." Augh!!! Impending doom and nausea. I'm an obsessive overqulaifier. 

Let me take my red gingham apron off and call Wally and the Beaver in for their afternoon snack. I was raised to be understated and undervalued. This is going to require some mind-bending consideration on my part. Hmmmmm... mental note to self, "Yes, June, you CAN remove those ugly qualifiers!" (Oh, and yes girls, we don't have to vacuum in our high heels anymore.)

You're such a hoot! I never was good at walking in heels much less vacuuming in them. Ha! That would be funny. ;-)

Juila, how are you? I also use qualifiers very often. Reading all your excellent and wonderful blogs I realize how a greenhorn I am when it comes to writing. I should have pursued this dream when I was still a youth...lol...anyway, better late than never...Keep posting and happy blogging.
