## What Jamie wrote

Written text is still the best way of communicating our ideas. In fact, it is also a great way to vet our own ideas. I agree with Orosz and think that writing is key to so many things. 

> The greater the influence of your position, the more people your writing will reach. In senior leadership positions, writing skills are yet more important.

I like the steps and practical suggestions he makes. I also use [Grammarly](https://www.grammarly.com) for my writing. On of the benefits I hope to get from publishing the Weekly Thing is to become a better writer over time.
