I’ve been on the road a lot lately, speaking to audiences about Writing to Make a Difference, grantwriting, copywriting for nonprofits, etc. Take a peek at this video of my presentation at the Dayton Metro Library for free: http://www.daytonmetrolibrary.org/non-profits-a-grants. It fits nicely into a lunch hour and will leave you with a few things to think about…and implement in your work today!
Here’s what the Dayton librarian, Genevieve Richardson, said on 10/27:
“Some people have said nonprofits put out a lot of lousy writing. They say we talk too much about ourselves and forget the reader. They say we can’t get to the bottom line. Too many forgettable clichés, generalizations, jargon…
There is a better way! Dalya Massachi’s book Writing to Make a Difference is the most thorough, practical, compellingly readable, downright inspiring guide to nonprofit writing that I have ever seen. If you write or if you edit writing by others—this book will help you do a better job.
Dalya generously shares the highlights of her book in this one-hour recording of a presentation delivered last month at Dayton Metro Library.“
I would really like to hear your comments!
