Communicating in written form is like painting with words. But while being an artist requires skills few people possess, these tips can make anyone a better communicator.

The best communicators are professional yet approachable in all their written communications. This means they talk to their audience rather than at them, avoiding using a preaching or lecturing tone. Nobody enjoys being lectured, and people are very likely to either stop reading or skim over a preachy message without truly comprehending it.While writing, picture that the person or people reading it are sitting in the room with you. Write the message so that if it were read out loud, it would sound like a pleasant, interesting conversation. Write so that if you were the reader, you’d eagerly devour and enjoy every word.
