Writing eBooks Tips

• You should know your audience. If you are writing about business, then lax prose might not be the best solution. If you are writing eBooks about swimming, you might get a bit more relaxed.
• Find a way that works for you to stay focused on your message. The "way" is different for each writer. Find the way of writing that is comfortable for you.
• Resist the temptation to use impressive words. They will daze your readers but not inform them. You need to look good in print when writing eBooks while at the same time remaining simple in your choice of words.
• English is a language weighed down with jargon. Here's an illustration "Get a life" is a way of suggesting that a person has succumbed to "terminal seriousness" on any topic. Some believe that William Shatner popularized this little phrase on "Saturday Night Live" in 1987. Others believe it was used before the airing of that show. Folks who might be reading your content might not understand a jargon phrase like this one. Jargon is not helpful. Most readers read at a junior high level, so keep it simple when writing.
• I was raised in the South. Sentence structure didn't matter when you were speaking or writing for that matter. Phrases like "Me and John went to the store" was common language. If you were writing a book with Southern expressions in it then this would be useful. But, if not then watch your sentence structure.
• Long sentences are not as useful as short sentences. Read USA Today. Notice how short their sentences are. Short sentences hold the attention of the reader.
• Using words too often like writing eBooks is not what your English teacher taught you, but the search engines love it.
• There are some words in the English language that can't be modified. One can't be "a little pregnant" or "very unique." It should go without saying. But, there are some writers who want to add modifiers to words that cannot be modified.
• Learn to punctuate. Commas are important little creatures. They help one take a breath. Watch out for the exclamation point! Don't overuse it: Get this eBook NOW!!!!! That just looks tacky and unprofessional. So punctuate well when writing.
• Use suffixes to compare rather than using "more." The wine is cooler. Not, the wine is more cool. Or, you could say that writing eBooks is "way" cool. Oops, there's that jargon again.

Enjoy yourself because writing is fun and can be profitable for you.
