Everybody Writes #FridayReflections

November 11, 2016 By corinnerodrigues 4 Comments

I wish I had more time to do a review of this great book that I’ve just read – Ann Handley’s Everybody Writes. I couldn’t wait to share it with you, so I’ll point you in the direction of other reviews (read this for that).

I’m also sharing from the book’s website.

Everybody Writes: Your Go-To Guide to Creating Ridiculously Good Content consists of six parts:

How to Write Better (or How to Hate Writing Less, for the recovering or “adult onset” writer) offers some handy scaffolding and blueprints for better thinking and writing.

Writing Rules offers easy grammar and usage rules tailored for business in a fun, memorable way. (Enough to keep you looking sharp, but not too much to overwhelm you.)

Story Rules (Part 3) and Publishing Rules (Part 4) give some guidelines on elements that infuse your content with heart and soul and integrity, and layer it with a warm blanket of trust. There’s a lot to learn here from the ground rules of journalism and publishing, so those are covered, too.

Things Marketers Write gives you a super-tactical look at typical marketing tasks.

And, finally, Content Tools delivers a reference list of resources and paraphernalia to help you produce your best work.

If you want to get a sneak preview, go here and also look at this infographic.

#FridayReflections

If you are new to Friday Reflections, here’s what it’s about. It’s the end of the week, you’re probably exhausted with work, and all you want to do is sit back, put your feet up, sip on some fancy cocktail or wine, and write away. Sanch of Living My Imperfect Life and Write Tribe give you writing prompts and all you have to do is choose any one of those prompts to blog about and link up between Friday and Monday. After you link up, be sure to spread the love by visiting other bloggers who have linked up too.

    I would love some easy to understand explanations of grammar and punctuation. I used to ignore this topic in school (borrrring) but now, I realize that grammar and punctuation are the tools of the writer as much as a hammer and saw are tools of the carpenter.
