Anyone that knows me would certainly categorize me as a "geek" and very few geeks can write well.

Most writers seem to agree on some basic concepts to help any writing sound better.  Tips like writing in first person voice, avoiding overused words and many other techniques.

I found a product called the Plain English Style Writer  a few years back and found that it quickly converted my mundane geek-like writing into smooth, understandable writing. 

I found that many of our customers could benefit from the same product, however the cost makes it prohibitive for some people.

I found a very cost effective alternative at www.worddog.com a few weeks ago.  It runs $20.00 per copy!  I have tested it out and like it alot.  Although it does not have as many features as the Plain English Style Writer -- it is a very effective tool for those of us who struggle to communicate clearly with the written word.

I ran the above copy through Word Dog and here is what I ended up with.  Aside from a few subtle word changes, it told me to remove the word "very" from a few different sentences.  A subtle change that does make my text read better.

So visit www.worddog.com and take a look.  I can finally recommend a good copy editor that won't break the bank. 

I am not promoting this particular company just because we recently redesigned their web site :)  I am recommending them because they are the ONLY alternative to the more expensive products AND it works great!
