Why My Passion Could Make YOU Money

Submitted by on December 7, 2009 – 10:00 am3 Comments

It’s important to introduce this early on in the blog, simply because online, you can’t waste your time with blogs that don’t ‘deliver’.  So in the interests of supporting your reading ease, I thought I’d explain why this is such a key subject, and why my passion can make money for YOU, as a writer of any kind.

As a blogger – the understanding of forensic linguistics can…

  • Give you a strong language USP – use of language is KEY to getting people to believe in your message.
  • Support you in creating a strong presence online.
  • Help you when you can’t find the words that may otherwise WOW your potential readers

As a writer – the understanding of forensic linguistics can…

  • Cut down on editing – you’ll be able to create works faster, because you’ll appreciate the use of language more.
  • Create a specific corpus for your own works.
  • Free up your time by supporting you in creating a solid language system that you can build on.

How I can help

Forensic linguistics is a relatively new criminological science – and falls loosely under psychology for many reasons.  I am studying it after I graduate from the undergraduate degree as a Masters degree, but until then, this blog is going to share with you the core facts and structures that forensic linguistics is built on, which in turn, should give you a solid way to understand your own writing.

    This is all new to me so I’m looking forward to reading more to learn what it’s all about.

    Me too – I’m really interested in the structure of language and the sort of micro-cultures that arise from it.

    The use of linguistics in regards to crime intrigues me :)

    Wow. Just wow.

    I guessed you were up to something impressive but I would never have thought. I’ll spread the word through my writing group.

    And I’ll enjoy the site myself of course… ;)
