I read this wonderful post on SEO Design Solutions, one of my favorite feeds.

Writing Isn’t Always So Easy!


Yesterday, my business coach pointed out that I very much write like I talk.  He told me “…that’s a good thing.”  (I wasn’t sure!).  But he then followed it up by commenting on my “tone” when I write.  (So, I’m assuming it’s when I talk as well).
