No matter your context, writing is crucial. When you have information that you need to get across to an audience, how much you can successfully transmit is directly proportional to how well you write. This series of courses by Richard Newton will help you improve as a writer. You will learn some of the basic skills you need to not only communicate your point effectively but also to hold the attention of others compellingly. You’ll learn how to write what you mean in a meaningful way that persuades others. You will develop graceful and impactful ways to conclude a writing piece and discover tools you can use to sharpen your work, and consider worthwhile ways to strategically revise your writing on your own and in community.
