Here’s an article by Dean Rieck @ Copyblogger: “11 Smart Tips for Brilliant Writing”

The 11 tips:

1. Have something to say

2. Be specific

3. Choose simple words

4. Write short sentences

5. Use the active voice

6. Keep paragraphs short

7. Eliminate fluff words

8. Don’t ramble

9. Don’t be redundant or repeat yourself

10. Don’t over write

11. Edit ruthlessly
