Redrafting

So I’m still here, even if I am knakkered from working late yesterday,

and I’m preety nervous about some of my web designs that I’m supposed to be churning out. I can’t churn! It’s like Grolsch, these things take time!

Today I’m experiencing the joys of being a critic. People send me stuff and expect me to publish it, hah! I like to publish copy that has paragraphs and delineated sentences in it, preferably with some recognisable syntax!

So I’m playing my editor card and entirely redrafting the worst articles; I wonder how the original author will feel after I’ve butchered their work? And who am I to judge? I start new sentences with prepositions and have to have dictionary.com open at all times.

I also find Google to be of great help, did you know that if you type define: query it brings up definitions for you? Such a blessing, Google is.

kilobox communiqué discusses the theory and practice of 'Internal Communications', touching on all aspects of good communication including writing, channels (e.g. intranets), best practices, technologies and the needs of the audience. I re-launched kilobox communiqué in July 2008, and I'm thrilled to have met so many communication professionals and practitioners online. I read every comment.

Publish and be damned, is what I say; although I'd prefer it if you didn't damn me with misquotes - please do link back to me rather than copy my work.
