Tayler brings up some good points about chapter 8, which goes over developing voice and style in professional writing. Tayler was correct in her statement that it can be difficult to have your voice come out in a professional document, especially when you are just beginning to write professionally. There were also good points made about the effects of kindness in the workplace. People are always much more willing to complete an assignment when prompted by a cheerful, encouraging attitude than one of annoyance. It is also important to watch what you say in your writing because it may be preserved as rude. Thinking about how others may perceive your tone before you send any important document can save you from embarrassment. I always like to have someone read over my work and get their thoughts on my writing.
Tayler’s points on chapter 19 are also good and she hits on a useful idea to communicate regularly with your clients. They need to know what you are doing and you may need their input to make your project the best possible. Also, if there is a disagreement it is good to fix it in the middle of the process versus the end when it would be much more difficult.
