editing and writing for clarity

editing and training

Clearer, more persuasive writing

Governments and other organizations try to create better communities by connecting with readers inside and beyond their own walls. But if readers can’t read or relate to the material, communication fails. And that happens a lot.

I write and edit information to keep citizens, experts and decision-makers informed and engaged. The language that speeds technical experts through their work excludes everyone outside the field. I can help you save you and your clients and stakeholders time and money.  

TRaining

I teach people better writing skills through self-paced or real-time courses.

Through PlainLanguageAcademy.com writers learn to improve their legal, technical and government communication. They learn when and where they want to. I give them feedback and answer any questions, and I meet them virtually at least once during their course.

My in-person or virtual students gain skills and resources they can use right away. Contact me for prices and availability.
