DON'T LET YOUR WRITING HOLD YOU BACK.

When you're fumbling for words and pressed for time, you might be tempted to dismiss good business writing as a luxury. But it's a skill you must cultivate to succeed: You'll lose time, money, and influence if your e-mails, proposals, and other important documents fail to win people over.

- Push past writer's block
- Grab--and keep--readers' attention
- Earn credibility with tough audiences
- Trim the fat from your writing
- Strike the right tone
- Brush up on grammar, punctuation, and usage
