What, exactly, is "writing junk"? "Writing junk is just that: writing with
misspelled words, grammatical errors, punctuation mistakes, and sloppy formatting,"
says Brian Konradt, a freelance writer, who designed, crafted and created
LousyWriter.com.

"The ease and informality of the Internet has made us lazy writers," claims Konradt.
"With a few taps of the keys on the keyboard, we can easily kick off a short note or
letter without thinking much about content, much less formatting. Usually we think
nothing about our lazy and sloppy writing in our e-mails because other people e-mail
us the same type of junk all the time."

Unfortunately, this type of thinking -- that society has accepted lazy writing,
especially in e-mails -- has negatively affected the quality of our writing in many
areas, both online and offline.

"Writing poorly adversely affects your personal life and business career," says
Konradt. "Poor writing makes you sound dumb and makes you look unprofessional. Do
you really think with poor writing skills you will get a job promotion, a salary
raise, or seal a multi-million dollar deal?"

Writing correctly is easy to do, according to Mr. Konradt. "We need only 2,000
different words as part of our vocabulary. We already know most of these words. We
use these words in everyday conversation. Knowing simple words, where to place them,
and how to use them correctly, makes us good writers."

Writers and non-writers can use LousyWriter.com to learn how to write different
forms of copy, how to use words correctly, how to write sentences, and how to
communicate effectively.

Brian Konradt has been a professional freelance writer for over ten years. He is
founder of FreelanceWriting.com ( http://www.freelancewriting.com ) and
LiteracyNews.com ( http://www.literacynews.com ), two other popular resources that
help writers and non-writers become good writers. His goal in launching
LousyWriter.com ( http://www.lousywriter.com ) is to provide a first-rate place to
learn the mechanics of good writing.
