Writing Business and Advocacy Letters


    Accessible World News Wire



    Have you ever wished that you could write better?  Oh, you can put words on 
paper OK, but do you ever feel like maybe you could do more, write more 
logically, say things better on paper?  If you feel that you'd like to learn 
how to write a short document that is clear, concise and says everything you'd 
like to say, then the upcoming two-part series from Accessible World is for you.



    On April 14, 2009 at 9:00 P.M. EDT, Ann K. Parsons will begin a two-part 
series on the thought process behind writing a short document.  The first 
session will explore ideas and how to categorize them.  In addition, Ms. 
Parsons will show you how to organize these ideas so that you can say what you 
want in the clearest and best way possible.  The second session is a practicum 
on writing a business letter and a letter of Advocacy.  These two short 
documents are written my all of us at one time or another.  



    This webinar features the usual lecture and question/answer period, but in 
addition, Ms. Parsons is offering copies of chapters from her book Writing 
Small Documents plus two pamphlets, The Business Letter and The Letter Of 
Advocacy.  The URL for downloading these files will be announced closer to the 
date of the Webinar.



    By attending this webinar, you will find that writing a business letter has 
all of a sudden become easier.  The people to whom you write understand what 
you have said, and moreover, they comply with your wishes.  You will find that 
advocacy is made easier too.  Come see what Ms. Parsons has to say about making 
writing small documents easier.
