I always get people telling me that they want to start a blog and that they have topics that interest them but, they don’t think they’re very good writers. They then ask how I manage to write on a daily basis and keep the content and flow going smoothly.
Well, practice makes perfect. Writing has always been something that comes naturally from poetry to stories to blog post reviews.
But, if you do struggle with your writing there are programs out there that can help you like the StyleWriter 4.

The StyleWriter 4 takes a document that you’ve written and analyzes it to determine where it could be improved and even makes suggestions and helps you change them.
I received a copy to review and I think it’s a good tool for beginning writers. A lot of my own articles that I plugged in to the program received a ‘Very Good’ rating so, it may not be for more verbose writers but definitely for those who can somewhat put a few words together and want to dress it up and finesse it a little bit.
To that end, here are 5 reasons why StyleWriter 4 would be right for you:
- Choose the type of article your writing – Are you writing a college paper, a business letter, your first blog post or a memo? Stylewriter lets you select the style you are writing in and drives the wording and format in that direction.
- Plain English Copy-editing Software – You ever heard the term KISS (Keep it Simple Stupid). That’s what this program does. It helps you keep the writing simple enough for you and others to comprehend. Sometimes big words are just that and don’t lend anything to the writing but, ultimately you can go with their suggestions or stick with the words you chose to use. It’s all about options.
- Jargon Buster Editing – This one is actually one that’s good for me. Sometimes I write long sentences that need to be broken down. They flow nicely in my head but visually theat may be too much for a reader. It also highlights jargon phrases, difficult words and acronyms and abbreviations to help you write in a jargon-free style which goes back to KISS. Not everyone knows the different slang terms and sometimes it’s really not necessary in writing especially for a college paper or business letter.
- Smart Spell – StyleWriter’s Smart-Spell technology finds spelling errors and spelling inconsistencies missed by other programs.
- StyleWriter Professional Edition – The professional version let’s you collect lists of words and phrases you normally use that will help you determine your particular writing style. Yes, even if you are new to writing you definitely have a ‘style’. Knowing what it is will help you in the long run to pick topics and ideas that are more in line with how you write.
