Description


"High-Value Writing: Real Strategies for Real-World Writing" helps readers manage the writing challenges they face at work and elsewhere in life. Many of us haven't talked about writing since school—but workplace writing has different requirements. How can we best write for work and elsewhere, to engage and inform our reader? HVW helps readers analyze their readers and their writing goals to make the best choices regarding words, order of information, flow, and more. International educator Erin Lebacqz has worked with writers of all levels in the private, public, non-profit, and academic sectors, both in the United States and internationally. In HVW, she brings insights gained from working with business and academic writers and presents them in a fresh light. Written as a conversation between author and reader, HVW will help you get in the driver's seat with your own writing, learning to make writing choices you feel good about, ultimately helping you develop voice, confidence, and upward mobility through clear and meaningful writing.

Worth reading This book is worth reading. Im not being bias because I know the author personally or that she was a college instructor of mine or a mentor, but this book is worth your time to read. It is incredibly informative and has some important information that will help you in any setting and not just in school or work. The information in this book will help you in an everyday setting and anywhere you are. Are you writing an email? A book? An essay for a competition? Something for work? Etc? This book will help with anything even the smallest of papers and project. It’s a must have. Read more
