There are some blatant writing mistakes that it is easy to to make when you are dashing off a quick email or two. And, as the article I’ve linked to below explains, that can be forgiven when it is between friends. Make those same mistakes in a business email and your credibility could be wiped out.

It makes interesting reading - and if you do spot something you have problems with it may help you avoid making that mistake again. Of course, if you are fully aware of all the examples and how they should be used… then you can congratulate yourself, can’t you?
