Description
In this course, the ex-journalist Shani Raja introduces students to the four key ingredients of exceptional writing:
- Simplicity
- Clarity
- Elegance
- Evocativeness
In as little as an hour, you'll know exactly how to apply this "secret sauce" to your own writing—putting you way ahead of other writers in your field, industry or profession.
The first three ingredients—simplicity, clarity and elegance—respectively make your writing punchy, crisp and graceful. Evocativeness is the fourth quality that makes your prose stimulating.
When you know how to put those four ingredients together, your writing will become truly outstanding. Indeed, it's the precise formula Shani used to edit articles enjoyed by millions of people worldwide.
Perhaps you feel your writing is too weak to get noticed or make an impact. Maybe you've struggled to figure out how to improve it, or even to know where to begin. Don't worry. This course will reveal the writing tactics of world-class editors in a well structured and easy-to-follow format.
You will find that as soon as you incorporate those four ingredients into your writing, you'll begin to see a seismic shift in the impact of your words and sentences.
