Are you a writer who wants to upskill and get better at your trade in the process? Maybe you review and edit others’ work on a daily basis but... kiiiind of don’t really know 100% what you’re doing. (Awkward.) Or maybe you have all these bloody great blog ideas but your posts don't hit as hard irl as they do in your head because you just can’t get the words right…

I know, I know... grammar and punctuation aren’t the sexiest subjects. But for copywriters, bloggers, editors, marketing and PR professionals – anyone who writes anything at all, really – these are the skills you need to produce clean, concise killer copy. And these are the skills that this workshop is all about!

Participants will receive an exclusive workbook ahead of the class filled with tips, tricks, techniques and other helpful bits 'n' pieces to work through as we go over the material.

Wildly beneficial for writers, newbie copyeditors or anyone looking to up their content game, this class is open to all experience levels.

In this 2-hour online session, we will cover:

  • Common grammar and punctuation mistakes (and how to avoid them).

  • How to properly (and quickly) fact-check copy and eliminate mistakes.

  • Tightening and cleaning up copy for an easier, more enjoyable read.

  • Some industry-standard style rules.

  • Using styles guides and creating your own.

  • Structural editing – what, why and how... and stacks more!

This workshop currently has one date open for April 2022, with more to come. (Psst – if there’s a date and time you’d like that’s not available, hmu and we can look at scheduling something in!)

Mon, April 4 @ 10am
