If you are a busy person who wants to make your writing more memorable and
distinctive, this course is for you.
Every Tuesday for 10 weeks you will receive a new lesson, delivered to
your email inbox for you to do as your schedule permits.
A nice complement to my
monthly writing tips, each lesson
requires only 10 minutes of your time.

you remember what you've learned. With a little practice, you'll
incorporate these helpful techniques into your everyday writing.

All instruction and exercises are
intended for you to work on independently. (In other words, your subscription
does not include individual feedback or review of your work.) So that you know
if you are doing the exercises correctly, I include answers to the exercises.
