Finding your personal writing style is not an overnight process, but it shouldn’t be a totally unnatural process either. Consider your target audience: Think about the typical audience member and imagine talking to them in real life. Or go one step further, get out there and interact with them. If possible (and consensual) record your conversations to analyse the style, tone and words used and try to incorporate this into your own copy style. For the benefit of search engines, it would be wise to do some research into keyword search volumes. This will help to identify valuable terms and also understand the psychology of your audience. When it comes to online copy, keyword optimisation is as important to your personal branding as good grammar and spelling. Copy Style Consistency The strong positioning of your brand depends heavily on a consistent copy style. Consider writing a hypothetical external perception of the character behind your copy style to help you maintain your ideal image. Male or female? Age? Casual or to the point? Peace maker or craver of controversy? What is your unique selling point or memorable characteristic to your copy style? Consider this broad identity every time you ‘put pen to paper’ and you’ll soon be on your way to a personal writing style for branding yourself online. Most importantly - before you publish any content online, have a checklist ready of style, spelling, grammatical and formatting fundamentals to double check so as to maintain a quality standard for yourself. About the Author Lookup Page can help you to take control of your Google CV and start branding yourself online. With three online web presence packages (from free to professional), you get to display your professional information, an overview of your links and search engine ranking as well as many additional services.

A comedy skit can be effectively used in church worship services to communicate Biblical truth. And you don’t have to be a professional writer or actor to create funny characters and humorous drama that is entertaining, but still makes a powerful, spiritual impact on your church congregation. Although I work professionally as a freelance copywriter, I have also written church drama for over 20 years. Here are some skit writing techniques I use to create funny characters and humorous church drama. Form church skit characters around your actors A Hollywood script creates a character and then the director finds an actor to play that part. But that’s Hollywood. And those actors are professionals. They dedicate themselves to learning how to play a variety of characters. The actors in your church skit are mostly amateurs. That doesn’t mean they aren’t talented. But they won’t be as versatile as a professional. So instead of making them adapt to a part in your skit, adapt the skit part to them. In other words, write the part to complement their natural personality and talents. If your actor is naturally gregarious, make their skit character gregarious. If in real life, they are thoughtful and analytical, make their skit character the same way. If they have demonstrated talents, like a French accent or an Elvis impersonation, incorporate it into the skit. By forming the characters of your drama around the actual personalities and talents of your actors, you create a part that is easier for them to naturally play and a character the church audience will enjoy. Make use of stereotypes A 3-5 minute skit does not allow enough time for much character development. So using common stereotypes makes it easy for your actors to assume a part and your church audience to understand the essence of the character. • The dumb blonde • The computer geek • The insensitive jock • The power hungry executive These are all familiar characters that are easy for actors to play and easy to form into a humorous skit. When you think about the funny characters of movies and sitcoms you’ve watched, they are often built around a stereotype. I’m sure as you engage in your skit writing, you’ll think of many others. Exaggeration Don’t just make the blonde in your church skit a little dumb. Make her really dumb. Your insensitive jock, completely oblivious to any life outside of sports. The computer geek unable to hold a conversation with an actual human being. Someone who is not just afraid of heights, but paralyzed in fear on the second step of a ladder. The more you exaggerate, the funnier it is and the less likely the actor in the skit will resemble an actual person in the church. Contrast Even a person in your church with minimal acting ability will have your church audience laughing by simply putting them into a skit character that is the opposite of who they are in real life. And you may be surprised by that person’s willingness, not only to accept the part, but to ham it up on stage. Is there a solemn usher who always wears a suit to church? Put him in a long wig and a rock band outfit. Let your children’s pastor portray a spoiled, bratty kid. Your most talented vocalist play an American Idol contestant that sings way off key. By using familiar people in your church with known traits and talents and putting them into a role that is the complete opposite of who they are in real life, you create instant humor for any skit. By using these techniques in writing your skit, you will more effectively use your actors to create comedy that your church audience will appreciate, but still effectively communicates your message.

Sailors had it for years. Great explorers had it as well. If you go on an expedition to an ancient Aztec mound, more than likely the archaeologist will have one too - so, why shouldn’t you own one? No, I’m not speaking of the scurvy that plagued the sailors! No, I’m not speaking of the Loch Ness Monster or Bigfoot, whom explorers claimed to have seen in snowy Manitoba winters. Nor am I speaking of a lost city, which was never truly lost, but simply buried under mounds of earth and recently dug up by an archaeologist. I’m speaking of journals. Journals? Yes! Keeping a journal can be just as much of an adventure as sailing the high seas, exploring unknown Canadian wilderness or digging in the dirt to find buried treasure. Journals have been a source of reflection for centuries. My suggestion is to look at your writing career as if you’re an explorer analyzing new-found land; an archaeologist digging up new artifacts and renaming them and so on… How can you do this? Well, view your journal as a logbook and document your daily happenings. Here is a suggested format for keeping your captain’s log. Divide your journal entries into sections: Date, Weather, Mood, Events and Freewrite 1. Date: This is the obvious one (for some people). Write the month, day and the year. Also write which day of the week it is (i.e., December 17, 2001; Monday). 2. Weather: Make note of the temperature outside. Is it 100 degrees? Or perhaps it’s only 20 degrees? Is it raining and 35 degrees? Snowing and 110 degrees? Raining cats and dogs? (Don’t step in a poodle….) 3. Mood: What’s going on in your head? Did you just get off the phone with your ex-lover who ruined your day and sank you into the depths of depression? Write about it. Did you manage to pull off some wondrous passive-aggressive revenge against said ex-lover? Write about that too and how it made you feel. 4. Events: Here’s where things get a bit complicated - for some. You have to do your homework. Watch television, read the newspaper and write a few lines about what’s going on in your city, state, country or the world in general. 5. Freewrite: Here’s your chance to shine. Since we’re all writers, we should leave a section for freewriting. Allow yourself some space to simply write aimlessly without direction. But, here’s the challenge - try to limit yourself to a certain number of lines. When you keep these entries for a week, two weeks or a longer period of time, it can be extremely beneficial. Comparing and contrasting the Mondays or Tuesdays could be a surprising learning experience. Many times I’ve written stories and wanted to “know” what 78 degrees felt like, so I went to my journal and found an entry, read my mood descriptions and weather descriptions and was easily informed from my own documentation. Keep in mind, a good writer documents everything - whether it be on paper or just in the mind’s filing cabinet. But, to keep things in order, try to keep your documentation on paper - or at least saved to disk.

This article will walk you through a simple process for writing a eulogy. If you are given the sacred task of writing an eulogy, you really want to do a good job - if nothing, do it well to show respect for the one who has crossed over to the other side. Usually, before you even start, all sorts of unnecessary thoughts may be flowing through your mind. How can you write an inspirational eulogy? What does an inspirational eulogy look like? Is there even such as thing as the perfect eulogy? Such thoughts may cause undue worry and stress. So perhaps this article can help alleviate some of this stress. While there is nothing cast in stone that says an eulogy must be written in a specific manner to be classed as good, there is still such as thing as good writing and bad writing. So the first thing to keep in mind, is to get the basics right. That means paying extra attention to the overall format of the speech, get the grammar right, and allow the speech to flow. That sounds like a lot in one sentence, so let’s break it down a little. The overall format of the speech refers to having a proper introduction, a few sub topics, and a conclusion. In the introduction of the speech, tell everyone how you get the ideas for the speech. Give as much background information as you can about the deceased, so that everyone knows where you are coming from. That will lead you nicely into the sub topics of the speech. Keep your speech well organized with a few sub topics. Make each sub topic highly relevant to the main theme, and use real life examples and stories to make your speech interesting. Your audience will connect better with what you are trying to say when you use simple words to communicate clearly what you want to say. It’s still a matter of basics here. When it comes to the conclusion, repeat quickly the key messages of your speech. Highlight the important ones if you want to. But since it’s the concluding stage, never beat about the bush. The important thing here is to remember that the goal of the speech is to let the audience remember the deceased in a way that he or she wants to be remembered. As a person close to the deceased, this is something that require a bit of sensitivity. For example, ask yourself if the deceased wanted to be remembered as a loving mother, a dutiful husband, or an adventurous person? These questions will give you very strong clues on how write, and eventually end your eulogy. Finally, know that there is no need to speak untruths about anything. A simple speech, written with concise messages is much better than a flowery speech aiming just to flatter. After all, the primary purpose of an eulogy is to allow others to remember the deceased as someone who has led the life he or she wanted while still alive. Anything that deviates from this purpose would have been a great injustice.

Keyword density is an indicator of the number of times the selected keyword appears in the web page. But mind you, keywords shouldn’t be over used, but should be just sufficient enough to appear at important places. If you repeat your keywords with every other word on every line, then your site will probably be rejected as an artificial site or spam site. Keyword density is always expressed as a percentage of the total word content on a given web page. The information the toolbar displays is outdated. There is a big difference between toolbar Page Rank and actual Page Rank. The data you see in the toolbar is 4 to 6 months old. Google tracks and assigns Page Rank in real-time, but does not update the toolbar in the same fashion. There are multiple tools that estimate future PR, but they are just that, estimates. Keep this in mind. Best SEO features: highlighting & backlinks. You can highlight all instances of the search term on the page returned from your search. This helps you see how many times your competitors use these keywords on their pages, so you can adjust your SEO campaign accordingly. Also, the backlinks feature displays all the pages that link to yours, which Google counts towards your Page Rank. Like I said above, remember this is outdated information. Suppose you have 100 words on your webpage (not including HMTL code used for writing the web page), and you use a certain keyword for five times in the content. The keyword density on that page is got by simply dividing the total number of keywords, by the total number of words that appear on your web page. So here it is 5 divided by 100 = .05. Because keyword density is a percentage of the total word count on the page, multiply the above by 100, that is 0.05 x 100 = 5% the accepted standard for a keyword density is between 3% and 5%, to get recognized by the search engines and you should never exceed it. Remember, that this rule applies to every page on your site. It also applies to not just to one keyword but also a set of keywords that relates to a different product or service. The keyword density should always be between 3% and 5%. Simple steps to check the density: 1. Copy and paste the content from an individual web page into a word-processing software program like Word or Word Perfect. 2. Go to the ‘Edit’ menu and click ‘Select All’. Now go to the ‘Tools’ menu and select ‘Word Count’. Write down the total number of words in the page. 3. Now select the ‘Find’ function on the ‘Edit’ menu. Go to the ‘Replace’ tab and type in the keyword you want to find. ‘Replace’ that word with the same word, so you don’t change the text. 4.0 When you complete the replace function, the system will provide a count of the words you replaced. That gives the number of times you have used the keyword in that page. 5. Using the total word count for the page and the total number of keywords you can now calculate the keyword density.

Libraries are the major source and market for the sales of books. Libraries have a collection of book topics published by various authors and therefore they are regarded as the store house of knowledge. Books on art, literature, politics, history, science etc. can be found in the libraries. A student can get knowledge about how to write an essay, project presentation techniques, information of different subject matter, etc. from the libraries. The introduction of technology and easily accessibility to internet has reduced the importance of libraries in recent time and this is the major reason for the losing sale of libraries in today’s market. Now-a day’s one can get information on any topic on just one click and therefore fewer and fewer people visit libraries these days. The innovation has greatly affected the traditional library activity. Libraries are the huge place where different subject matters are assembled at different places. In order to get information on a particular topic the readers have to search through various lots and this consumes a lot of time of the readers. In this hectic life when people have to make productive use of their time, libraries can waste the precious time of the readers. However in contrast to this, internet does not demand the readers to move from their place and can comfortably present information on a given topic right in front of the readers. If a book is in demand it does not allow the readers to reserve the book. This leaves readers with no choice but to use the internet. Also the readers have to immediately jot down the points from the original content which can add extra pressure on the readers. When the readers surf the internet, they do not have to wait for a particular piece of information even if it is in demand. The libraries work for specific hours in a day and the readers are supposed to collect or gather information within that time limit. This restricts the flexibility of the readers, whereas the internet provides 24/7 service to the readers and they do not have to wait for a particular time to get the information. Also the readers do not have to alter their daily schedule to receive the information. In order to access the library, the readers have to pay monthly membership fees. Contrary to this, the internet provides free service and this helps the readers to save thousands of dollars which may not be possible otherwise. Group discussion and group projects about a particular topic are not possible within the libraries whereas the personal computer allows the readers to sit with companions and openly discuss on a particular topic. The most important academic task is essay writing and the guidelines on how to write an essay can be easily and quickly found by the students on the internet than in the library.

Artists, writers, innovators, and entrepreneurs…in fact creative and business people from all backgrounds; mostly those starting out, but even some with a level of experience in their field behind them, have at some point or another realized they’ve had misconceptions about what copyright is, how it works, for what types of creative work, and what it can do for them. So, let’s get started, and perhaps with the most obvious questions anyone may have about copyright; what is it, and why does it exist in the first place? Let’s start with the latter question first. Why copyright exists Imagine this scenario; you build a cottage, say, to your own design. It’s a beautiful, Tudor-style, thatched roof affair, with a small, well-kept garden, and a breath-taking view of rolling, verdant green hills offering spectacular sunsets in the evening. Now imagine someone finds out about your unique, very attractive cottage one day, and moves in while you’re out. You come home to suddenly find you can’t get back in, and this squatter inside is claiming they own your house, that they built it even, and worse, they’ve started renting out the back bedroom for a pretty penny. To cap it all, they’re now building duplicate cottages matching your design down the road to sell and earn even more money. Now imagine there was no law in existence to give you the opportunity to re-claim ownership of your property and no means to stop the usurper or win restitution from them for their actions. Transfer this - admittedly crude - analogy to creativity, and that’s why copyright exists. I like how the Irish Patents Office(1) puts it on their website with regards the Nature of Copyright: “First, persons who create works of the intellect or who invest in their creation and dissemination are entitled as a matter of human right to secure a fair return for their creativity and investment. Secondly, unless the rights of creators and investors to a fair return are supported, the community as a whole would be impoverished by the fact that, in many cases, these works would not be created or developed.”(2) Our civilization progresses through creativity and innovation. But for creators to create, they need to eat, they need to live, earn money, receive recognition for their work and the stimulus to keep striving when the going gets tough. Copyright exists therefore to make this happen and help the innovators earn revenue from their creations. Copyright exists to promote creativity and help creative people live from their creativity. Copyright exists because it makes creative and business sense for copyright to exist. If a writer earns money from their work, they can earn the funds to keep writing. If an artist earns money from the licensing and manufacturing of images of artwork, they have income so they can invest their time productively in more projects. Furthermore, copyright exists to encourage innovation and prosperity, for society as a whole as well as for the individual doing the innovating. Take copyright away and you effectively tie the hands behind creatives’ backs. Imagine a world culturally, creatively, industrially and economically deprived because its innovators weren’t given the reward for - and the power to protect the use of - their endeavours. With that in mind, lets put my cottage analogy into proper context now; you’re a creative person, aren’t you? Imagine every time you created something, someone could come along and copy it, claim it as their own and very likely make money from it, and without fear of consequences because there was no law making their actions punishable. You’d very soon give up creating wouldn’t you? What’d be the point of all that hard work when others could reap the credit and the reward? Fortunately for us, that’s not how it is in the real world. Lets read again what the Irish Patents Office says; that it’s a “…human right to secure a fair return for their creativity and investment.” I say again, nicely put. So that’s why copyright exists. But just what is copyright? Copyright is… If you consider my crude cottage analogy again; it essentially establishes what copyright is… a property right. But a property right that applies, not to land or buildings or vehicles, but to products of the human mind… of our intellect. Creative products, such as literary, dramatic, musical or artistic or filmic work. And what can one do with this “intellectual property” right? Well, copyright has some similar but also different entitlements to other forms of property right, specifically allowing the copyright owner (or owners) to: * copy, lend and distribute their work * license others (i.e. grant written permission) to use the copyright owner’s work * adapt their work or licence others to do so (e.g. adapt a book into a movie) * sell their created work - their intellectual property - to others, and, importantly… * have powers to stop wrongful infringement of those rights by third parties, i.e. the copying and exploitation of the copyright owner’s work without their permission, as well as… * obtain recompense in the form of compensation or damages for infringement where loss of revenue has been discovered. This applies to a copyright owners work, whether or not it’s been published, exhibited or otherwise released to the public for their consumption. Not only this though… Moral Rights in copyright A creator and commissioner of a copyrighted work is also entitled under copyright to other rights relating to their work. Called “Moral Rights”, these are: * the right to be identified as the author (or artist, or photographer, or composer, or director etc.), and to stop a work being falsely attributed to them * the right not to have their work subjected to derogatory treatment (alteration, re-arrangement or deletion) by others; “derogatory treatment” being where the resulting work is mutilated, distorted, and can damage the creator/authors reputation * the right to privacy when it comes to certain photographs and films (e.g. a commissioner of private photos has the right not to have them published or exhibited to the public where the photos become copyright works) Here’s some examples of these above three points: I’ve asserted my moral right to be identified as the author of this article; a right I have under law to do so(3). Were this a fictional book, and it was adapted into a movie, I’d also have the right to be identified in the movie as the author of the source novel - unless you set aside the right. Conversely, Alan Moore, whose now legendary unhappiness at the treatment of adaptations of his graphic novels and how he feels they’ve reflected badly on his original work, has prompted him to demand his name be removed from the movies credits, such as Watchmen. If for some reason, J K Rowlings Harry Potter series of books had been knowingly and deliberately credited as my work and not hers by someone else, both she and I could stop it, due to false attribution.(4) If during the editing of this book, I’d felt a third party (an editor, a publisher or printer) had done a hatchet job on all my hard work, I could not only let it be known how unhappy I was with this mistreatment, but I’d have the right to stop it too.(5) Finally, the photo-portraits of my significant other and I which we paid a professional photographer for, hang on the walls where we live… and nowhere else without our say-so.(6) See how Moral Rights work? Now I need to mention there are however exceptions to Moral Rights; they can’t be asserted when copyrighted works are computer programs or computer-generated work (created without human intervention), or for a typeface design. Also, if the creator/author hasn’t asserted their right to be identified as the creator/author if that right applies, the Moral Right hasn’t been violated. In addition, if the creator/author works for an employer who does/will own the copyright of the work you produce, you will not have this right either (more on this “Work Made For Hire” later). Who owns copyright Now that we know the “what” and “why” of copyright, lets find out the “who”; just who this “copyright owner” I’ve mentioned is: The copyright owner is the person or persons who created the work that is copyrighted. You might well have guessed that already. Under copyright law then, creatives are usually the first person(s) granted ownership of copyright over the work they’ve created, as outlined above.(7) So if you’re someone who’s created a copyrighted work, the rights of ownership to that copyrighted work belong to none other… than you. Lets be clear about this; no-one else but you, the creator of the copyrighted work, has these rights; not your mum, your partner, not nice Mrs Miggins down the road. (Yes, not even her either.) They’re yours and yours alone (unless the created work has been a collaborative effort).(8) Exclusively. Nor will those rights be anyone else’s unless and until you as the rights owner (sometimes called “rights holder” too) grants permission of usage - licenses - or gives away/sells - assigns - those rights. Sounds good doesn’t it? Works for me. Having said that though… There’s ownership and then there’s Ownership People can get the wrong end of the stick when they hear about copyright ownership, so I thought - now that’d I’ve identified what copyright ownership is - it’d be worth clarifying what it isn’t. Now where you live you have products like DVDs, books and CDs all over, and you own them, right? I mean you paid good money for them, right? Sure you did. So you’re their owner. But does that mean you own the copyright subsisting in those products? No, of course you don’t. Its the author and/or the publisher/distributor who retains the copyright. There’s a difference then to owning a copy of a copyrightable work, and owning the copyright of that work itself. If you’re forking out cash for, say a CD, you’re buying ownership of that CD copy of that recording artists album, not ownership of the master recordings themselves, nor the right to produce copies of the CD you purchased either. If more than one author or creator has been involved in producing the work, then joint copyright ownership applies. Song writing partnerships are a classic example, wherein by virtue of having co-written a song, they each become the joint copyright owners. Then there’s being hired to produce some work. Were you hired? Check your copyright We have all been employees, and many of us have been hired as freelancers. And in that time I guarantee you, we put something together, wrote or drew something for our employer. Does this mean according to what I’ve outlined above that copyright became ours? Not necessarily. You see, if we prepared this work as part of the duties of our employment, or if it was commissioned from us, if we’re part of team employed on a project, or if in fact, we’re building something under a “work made for hire” agreement, then in all likelihood the copyright will be our employers, not ours. So are you in employment right now and creating works the rights to which you assumed were yours? Then take a look at the employment contract you signed with your employer. There are likely to be provisions in there which cover this question of ownership. Or are you yourself commissioning work from others? Then look at the purchase orders you send out or agreements you sign. Are there clauses in the terms and conditions which cover intellectual property rights for people you hire, so that those rights are yours upon payment? So there we are; that’s what copyright is, its purpose, and who gets to use it. To learn more about copyright, please see our resource box.

You are probably scratching your head at this one, but I promise shaving does have something to do with tattoos. For one when you get a tattoo the tattoo artist always shaves the area where you are getting a tattoo so your skin is nice and smooth and nothing is getting in the way. The reason I bring this up is because my sister recently asked me if you got a tattoo on your leg would it be ok to shave over it. The answer I gave her was yes. But there is a BUT in there. There is a misconception that when you get a tattoo and the tattoo artists shaves you wherever you are getting the tat that your hair will not grow back. This is false; your hair will grow back. My personal experience with this is that my hair grew back but not as fast and it didn’t grow back as full. It’s really hard to explain, my tattoos feel smooth as a baby bottom and don’t really feel like hair has grown on top of them, but there is indeed hair there. Back to my sister’s question, yes you can still shave you legs if you get a tattoo on them. However, it is highly recommend that you wait until the tattoo is good and healed and maybe if you are scared of cutting yourself just shave around the tattoo. And just be extra carful when you are shaving that particular area. Your Tattoo Friend Ashley
