The US Navy found

a year. Apply StyleWriter's advice to your organization's communications
and you will save money and improve efficiency.
Original
Memo - before editing with StyleWriter
This typical memo
is wordy and passive, with a high average sentence length. Although
no sentence is excessively long, (38-26-32 words), the average of 31
is too high for easy reading.
Redrafted
Memo - after editing with StyleWriter
StyleWriter's advice
and analysis helps us transform the passive and wordy memo into a shorter,
more readable document. The redrafted memo uses 27 fewer words than
the original without and loss of meaning. A sign of good, effective
editing.
