Speeches and Speech-Writing Guides

A speech is essentially a verbal essay. In other words, a speech is an essay that’s meant to be read aloud to an audience instead of read by your audience.

The most important proofreading technique you can employ when checking the text of a speech or a script is to read it aloud. That’s the only way you’ll learn whether or not the words easily “roll off your tongue” and aren’t ones that cause you to stammer or trip up. –from The Everything Improve Your Writing Book by Pamela Rice Hahn
