I am a very wordy person. My editor is constantly cutting down the amount of words in my writing. What are some strategies you have come up with the cut your wordiness? Is there some special techniques to catch extra words? Please give good answers and not copy and pasted. Solution look mister, good communication should have some characteristics. then only it can reach the targeted people at the right time with the right meaning. few of the characteristics are: 1. the presentation should be as straight as possible: means there should not be any lenthy sentences or any indirect presentations. it should be straight, simple and easily understand to the target people. 2. there should not be any indirect presentation: means the issue has to be present directly only. 3. you should have an idea about every news or issue, the importance of the issue, how it should present and what is the right size of words it contains. the un-necessary information leads to higher cost to the publisher as well as headache to the readers. 4. there are no special techniques or formulas in presentation of information. all its about common sense, while you present the information, put your foots in the legs of the readers. means think in the readers point of view, and present only the information upto what extent it really needed. and once again i am telling you, its all about common sense. the words you are writen are straight, simple and easily understood to the readers..
