The Write Stuff - Meet Lynette M. Smith of goodwaystowrite.com “With a bit of reflection and planning, you can inspire others with your writing,” says Lynette M. Smith, the owner and operator of allmybest.com a copyediting and publishing service she founded in Yorba Linda, California in 2004. Good Ways to Write, the publishing arm of All My Best, helps by providing everyday people with tools and other resources to write their own heartfelt personal letters and business communications to special people on special occasions. In today’s hurry-up world of smart phones, tablets and more, thoughtful writing is fast becoming a lost art. As Lynette states, “That’s a shame—thoughtfully written communications mean so much to those who receive them! Besides, written communications last longer than spoken words alone.” She believes – and I think she’s absolutely right – that with a bit of reflection and planning, we can all inspire others with our writing. Lynette helped me to finally go for it and compose a heartfelt letter I had been holding back on. When my son Braxton turned 13 last spring, I asked everyone with whom we are close to write him a heartfelt letter for him to open on his 18th birthday in 2025. A challenge for some but especially for me, as I am certainly no writer and, well, I suck at grammar! But thanks to her comprehensive reference book and websites, I was able to create a meaningful, heartfelt letter from mother to son that I hope Braxton will treasure forever four years from now and throughout his entire life. I asked this lovely, very knowledgeable lady to join me on my Not So Darlin podcast so I could learn more from her and share it with all of you.
