Workshop: Writing Well with Vikki Ross

"If I had more time I would write a shorter letter". So, famously, wrote Mark Twain. Enjoy some experiential expertise on better writing, and take away new tools and techniques (from concision to rhythm) to apply the next time you need to communicate clearly with someone. In this highly practical session led by copywriting maestro Vikki Ross, we'll explore some proven principles of great writing, and turn them into activities and exercises you can use again and again.

This 20 minute eCourse builds the skills to do just that; impacting your relationships with all around you. Find a quiet corner and try it today.
