Squirrels: Write Tight

Why say "An Associate English Professor at LCC, Oliver Brookes . . . "

. . . when you could say . . .

"LCC Associate English Professor Oliver Brookes . . . "

Watch your word order and look for efficiencies. Quite often "an" or "at" or such words are unnecessary.

Save a couple of words; save a tree; save the world.
