Hi Vicky,
It's really nice that your daughter is authoring your press for you, but the release seems to be less of an actual press release and more like an article, review or blog post.

As it's already out I won't trouble you with too much on the spelling and grammar, but in the first line you've got: I recently came across and interesting idea on the Internet: a virtual office

But I expect you'd want it to read '...an interesting idea...' (there are a few 'and's where you must have meant 'an' throughout the release body.

For more info and tutorials on press release writing you can check this thread from our archives.

Thank you, I did not even read through it. Guess that goes without saying that you should even check your family's input. :}

Yes, definitely worth a second set of eyes, or even a third - especially considering that it is a direct reflection of your business.

As brilliant as our family members may be, it's still up to each of us to ensure that any copy that goes out with our company name attached is up to par.

You have to have them edit it but I sent a note so hopefully they will soon. Even when you are busy, this will teach you to pay better attention. I have been upgrading my website for a couple of days. Thank you all for the help and input.:aureola:

Its a good article. I was thinking of having my daughter help with me with some writing. She is definitely the writer in my family. Tell your daughter good job Vicky...how old is she?
