Part 2 – How to Write and Edit your First Draft … Carefully

(A 12-hour Program: Online or Onsite)

In the 12-hour program, we’ll go beyond clear, concise, and correct. Our focus will be on practical application: using the principles covered in Part 1 to prepare an exceptional first draft. The objective is to develop an understanding of how to employ a series of specific writing and editing techniques – to create sentences that spark the reader’s interest, command attention, and earn respect.

The expectation at this stage is not that people will start producing Pulitzer Prize-winning material overnight. What they will learn is how to use the principles covered in Part 1 to develop a step-by-step approach to writing and editing a coherent, engaging first draft, based on the language models and practices used in the American publishing industry.

For each participant … The 12-hour program (online or onsite) will include interactive instruction along with all of the tools that come with the Fundamentals program – plus the 6-hour Good Grammar • Perfect Punctuation • Smart Sentences video and the 22-page Write Smart Stylebook for Writers and Editors.

Online Group Price (10 to 30 participants, four 3-hour classes): $3,400

Onsite Group Price (10 to 30 participants, two 6-hour classes): $4,990
