Press Release Author = Cape Spear Press

sales letters written in English originate in the USA. But there are at least five
times as many English speakers world-wide as
there are in the USA. This new report will help everyone writing in English to avoid
the pitfalls that alienate international readers. Follow the report\'s guidelines,
and you will find a massive world-wide market of eager, happy consumers.

Press Release Body = As you probably know...

* A huge chunk of all the web pages, ebooks, articles, blogs, sales
letters written in English originate in the USA.

But you almost certainly DID NOT know...

* There are at least five times as many English speakers world-wide as
there are in the USA.

This means that a high proportion of people online have trouble with
content written in \'American English\'. They find the style bizarre, the
language unusual, and much of the grammar and punctuation wrong.

And, of course, the problems are not just one-way. Plenty of Americans
have real trouble with the English of Brits, Australians, Indians, even
Canadians. To help everyone writing in English make their
material acceptable to international readers, Kathy Lang\'s new report,
\"Writing for the World\", shows:

* the everyday words that will make international readers click
away fast

* how to avoid seeming arrogant or ignorant

* forms of writing that make text difficult to read

* how to use punctuation so that it helps readers

* why apostrophes are so hard for foreigners, and what to do about it

Dr Mani, one of the most respected writers and marketers on the
Internet, says:

\"If only everyone writing ebooks/reports could densely pack so much value
into a crisp, short report, while keeping it entertaining and lively so
it becomes an easy, fun read...\"
