BETTER WRITING, LESS FUSS
also known as better writing with less struggle, less frustration, less
miscommunication, less head-scratching and, most of all, less wasted time

Appropriate for anyone who writes any type of material while on the job.

Better Writing, Less Fuss is an instructional and motivational workshop that teaches simple, time-tested techniques for writing better material with greater ease. Transform your written communications from satisfactory to superb. Break out of writing ruts. Stop struggling. Learn powerful tools to bust through writing procrastination. Rework existing materials for more persuasive results. Produce writing that is fresher, more powerful and more effective. And stop wasting time and money on writing that is not generating the best possible returns.

How do we know we can help?  We have several decades of experience in the writing trade. We have taught writing at major universities.  And we have more than 15 years of experience working in the travel, resort and sports industries. 

This workshop is appropriate for anyone whose job requires them to communicate with the written word — whether what's written are memos, letters and email or ads, press releases, media kits, web content and annual reports.  Workshops are customized to focus on the attending group's specific writing challenges and goals.

Our workshops are motivational, instructional and focussed on results

Susan conducted a great workshop. … She was able to customize the workshop to ensure it was extremely relevant to our everyday challenges. … A year later, we frequently refer back to what we learned.

This workshop is right for you or your staff if you answer yes to any of the following questions:
  • Do you ever struggle with writing  — or procrastinate when you have something you must write?
  • Are you happy with the quality of writing generated by your staff?
  • Could your own writing be more effective?
  • Do your company's written communications — whether in-house, in print or on the Web — need a boost?
  • The typical North American worker spends ten hours per week grappling with writing tasks.  Many spend far more time and still are not satisfied with their results. Can your company's time and money be better spent?
