Don't (from Writing Tips for Non Writers, Jan. 31, 2012)


Presumably, if you're a non-writer looking for writing tips, it has something to do with your job. 


Here are some sayings:

  1. In doubt, leave it out.
  2. Presumption is the mother of mistakes.
  3. A dirty mind makes clean writing.*

More:

Don't say things you always wanted to say that were sidelined by company policy. 


And:

Writing for work isn't the place to talk about what's wrong at work.


*Don't use words or phrasing that are slang for sex or death. It isn't easy, sometimes.
