What is StyleWriter?

StyleWriter is the best word processing add-on on the market. It teaches you to write in the style of top authors and journalists by checking every document for thousands of style and English usage faults. Many times more powerful than any other writing aid, StyleWriter improves your writing style instantly.

How does StyleWriter work?

StyleWriter is an add-on to Microsoft Word to help you edit everything you write into a model of clear English. If you’ve used Microsoft Word’s spelling and grammar checker, you might find a few errors to correct. You might even find the constant highlighting of false errors, especially with the grammar checker, frustrating. If you’ve tried other so-called writing enhancement programs, you’ll soon discover they offer silly advice or offer little that Microsoft’s doesn’t already do.

StyleWriter marks up your document and shows you how to edit each sentence. You can click on any highlighted alternative to change the text in StyleWriter and Microsoft Word. Alternatively, with one click you can go to Microsoft Word to redraft the word, phrase or sentence.

Designed by experts to pass on their expertise

Designed by journalists, editors and business writing tutors, StyleWriter gives you the skills of a good editor. Simply click the StyleWriter button in Microsoft Word (or any clipboard text) to launch a check for thousands of faults and bad habits found in writing. Trimming the excess words, simplifying and clarifying your style, checking for good English usage — editing is easy with StyleWriter.

Clarity and readability

Most documents benefit from strong editing to improve clarity and readability. Many of us have poor writing habits, making our writing dull and long-winded and this makes it difficult to get our message across. StyleWriter changes your habits by showing you how to edit your writing into a clear and readable style. StyleWriter is the ideal writing software for anyone who needs to communicate clearly in English.

Encourages the clearest writing style

StyleWriter works by teaching you to write in plain English - the style underlying all great writing. Plain English is clear English. Mark Twain, Ernest Hemingway and John Steinbeck are writers with a simple, clear and direct style. Time, Newsweek, Scientific America and the Washington Post - just about every successful publication - owe their popularity and readership to adopting a clear, readable style.

Look at your writing through the editor's eyes

Imagine you could afford to pay an editor to improve every document you write. Send off your business plan, technical report or sales letter and you'd get a shorter, clearer and more effective document back. But the cost would be hundreds of dollars.
With StyleWriter you can edit your own documents and save money. Sure, a professional editor would show you other ways to improve your document, but you could get most of the advice offered by running StyleWriter through your text.

Break your writing habits

Good writing transfers ideas and information from the writer to the reader clearly and concisely. StyleWriter encourages the clearest style so your reader concentrates and acts on your message rather than struggles to understand what you want to say.
StyleWriter helps you write in clear English by identifying words and phrases in your writing that get in the way of clarity and poor style. It doesn't encourage a standard style. There's plenty of room for individual style, rhetoric and imaginative writing. So let StyleWriter help you get rid of your poor writing habits, present in most writing, so you can express yourself clearly in your own words.

Gain new writing skills

StyleWriter shows you how to run the editorial pen through everything you write to make it clear, concise and readable. Why waste time drafting average documents when you can use StyleWriter to write documents that get the results that you want?
