We received this submission for Libra to ponder and provide 10 recommendations that would be appropriate advice in this case:

"A friend has raised for me the issue of whether my writing style could be improved. He mentioned a particular case, but that got me to thinking.

I have a lot of academic background, and it shows in how I express myself. I tend to write in the dialect known as "Standard Literary English", which has a very large vocabulary and tends to complex grammatical constructions. I do not, though, wish to be read only by academics!

What do you think, dear friends: should I make an effort to simplify my vocabulary and grammar?"
