Writing in a formal style is done so for readers you don't personally know. Usually, it is more intricate than informal writing. Writing in a formal setting tends to be more formal and less conversational.

It must be error-free in terms of language, grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Some letters could also benefit from a more formal tone.

Typically, formal writing use longer sentences. In formal writing, the author adopts a more dispassionate stance. Typically, the main ideas are made, followed by arguments to support them. Emotional writing tends to be less common in formal writing.

In formal writing, contractions should never be employed to make language simpler. In general, abbreviations should be spelled out completely when first used.

Transportation Strike Disrupts Westridge
Thousands unable to get to work or school

WESTRIDGE, Ohio — More than 600 transportation employees went on strike at midnight last night after the Westridge City Council rejected their demand for a 10% pay increase. The strike affects all bus and rail services throughout Westridge and the neighboring communities of Turlock, Smithfield, and Lowell Grove.

“We hoped we would not be forced to strike, but until our demands are met, we really have no choice,” said Wanda Thompson, a representative of the Transportation Employees Union. “We simply don’t get paid what we deserve.”

Members of the Westridge City Council see the situation differently. “Our employees already earn 6% more than the state average for similar transportation jobs,” said Raoul Cobian, President of the Westridge City Council.

Hopefully the two groups can come to an agreement soon and bring this unnecessary strike to an end.

Was Einstein a Space Alien?


Modern pop culture paints scientist Albert Einstein as a bushy-haired superthinker. His ideas, we’re told, were improbably far ahead of other scientists. He must have come from some other planet—maybe the same one that scientist Isaac Newton grew up on.


“Einstein was no space alien,” laughs Harvard University physicist and science historian Peter Galison. “He was a man of his time.” All of his 1905 papers unraveled problems being worked on, with mixed success, by other scientists. “If Einstein hadn’t been born, [those papers] would have been written in some form, eventually, by others,” Galison believes.


What’s remarkable about 1905 is that a single person authored all five papers, plus the original, irreverent way Einstein came to his conclusions.

Read the excerpt from "Homesick Blues."

Do you want to know what turned out to be the last straw for me? I was walking down to the corner delicatessen one day, and a man asked me for two dollars. He said he needed it for bus fare to get to the hospital to visit his mother who was dying. I told him I didn't have any cash, although I was holding $12.00 in my back pocket. The truth was that I didn’t believe him. I thought he was lying to me because I'd heard so many lies here and because this same man had told me the same story before, and if his mother has been dying that long she should be in a medical journal, and because I am tired of it.


Later, after I got back to the apartment, I thought about the man and about me. The poor guy was worse off than me and all he wanted was two lousy dollars. When had I become so jaded, so suspicious, so calloused? I don't like that part of me, and I don’t like the city that has brought it out for me to see.
