Paul
Lima's Fundamentals
of Writing
is a must have for every writer. If you write, this book belongs on
your library shelf.
It will get you
writing news and feature leads and articles that can be used

studies, blog posts and
tweets."
- Arnold Hammer, freelance writer Fundamentals of Writing is a book written specifically for those who want to improve their writing skills and apply them to writing articles (for newspapers, magazines, and corporate publications), media releases, case studies, blog posts and social media content. The book is based on several writing courses that I teach online for University of Toronto continuing education students and for private students and corporate clients. And it is filled with samples, examples and exercises to get you writing. Fundamentals of Writing is for you if you are looking to do any of the following: become a more effective writer; organize your thoughts before you write; write for a defined audience; make your points in a clear, concise, focused manner. My hope is that this book will help you effectively structure your written communication when writing articles, media releases, case studies, blog posts and social media content. |
