My writing consulting practice was recently featured in an article on SimplyCommunicate.com, a business website focusing on a hole host of communication issues. In a 1,300-word article, “Philip Vassallo Teaches Corporate Communicators How to Have the Write Stuff,” writer Kelly Kass accurately depicts some of the major issues that arise in my practice and underscore my books The Art of On-the-Job Writing and The Art of E-mail Writing:
• Dealing with writer’s block
• Understanding the role of audience in writing at work
• Distinguishing between revising and editing, and which to do first
• Focusing on the 4S Plan in writing: statement, support, structure, and style
• Writing collaboratively and for the boss’s signature
• Committing to continuous improvement in writing
• Managing e-mail effectively
