CONCISION:
Ensure none of your paragraphs exceed 10 lines. Remember quotes do not count against your
line count.
60% or better on simple sentence. Reference slickwrite.com to view the pie chart relating to
your sentence breakdown.
Maintain 13-15 average sentence length. This is median average of your sentences when
counted together. Use slickwrite.com to verify your sentence average. Slick write will add each
sentence and calculate the average based on that. So you can have long sentences and short
sentences, just as long as it lands between 13-15 words average.
ACCURACY:
DO NOT use Cliché or Colloquialisms. E.g., Think outside the box, popping up, fall on deaf
ears, etc.
Place two spaces after each period
Check for recycled sentences. E.g., Diversity is. Diversity means. Diversity does.
Make sure your capitalize Soldier, Army, DA Civilians, Cities, States, First word of a sentence,
etc.
Veer away from run on sentences. If the sentence can be independent, allow it to be.
Be mindful of linking “be” verbs. E.g. have been, been done, be passed, be promoted, will be,
be done, will do, etc. These will make your sentence passive
