McDonald Wordsmith:
a blather-free zone
|
At McDonald Wordsmith we
stand for clarity, precision,
and good sense. But
blather? Never.
Overblown phrases,
gratuitous buzzwords,
meaningless strings of
overworked adjectives –
how did these things ever
catch on?
We hereby declare that
corporate doublespeak is a
scourge and a plague, and
its bewildering days are
over. Sure, there are times
when your writing needs a
formal tone, but the road to
respectability is not paved
with poppycock. Good
writing is built on solid
wording, strong
organization, and
intelligent style. Period.
If you want to make an
impression, we can help. If
you want to present
yourself clearly, we can
help. And if you have an
unfortunate tendency to
prattle on in a maximally
obfuscatory manner, then
yes, for goodness' sake, we
can help.
Welcome to McDonald
Wordsmith, and welcome to
the blather-free zone.
