The current issue of The Chronicle of Philanthropy includes this year’s Continuing Education Guide. There you will find an article entitled, “A Mightier Pen Can Help Charities Spread Messages,” full of great information about the need for strong writers in the nonprofit sector. I was pleased to serve as one of the sources for this article, which shares some of my tips for boosting your writing skills.
In the article, my colleagues and I agree that many nonprofit professionals see the need for improving their written communication skills, even after college. They often lack that essential training but can get it from books (such as Writing to Make a Difference), websites, workshops, and writing coaching.
A resource that was not mentioned in the article is my free Writing Wednesdays series, which offers training and feedback twice a month by phone (listen to the recordings in the archive). You can also watch my free webinars. If you’re looking for more customized training, check out the affordable custom services I offer.

I’d love to hear your comments!
