I began my career as a technical writer, and quickly learned that the engineers I worked with, although brilliant, were extremely challenged in their ability to communicate effectively in writing. My early experiences led me to write How to Write It, Personal Notes, Write the Right Words, 3000 Power Words and Phrases for Effective Performance Reviews, and most recently, Writing Well for Business Success.
