In a world where we text more than we talk, use emoticons to explain how we feel, and SHOUT in all caps, you might think that the skill formerly known as writing is viewed mostly as an ancient art. Instead, it’s more in demand than ever. Ask any business exec what they most value in an employee, and they invariably put strong communication skills—and most especially written communication skills—at the top of the list. If that expectation weighs heavily on your shoulders, you’ll appreciate the tips, takeaways and writerly advice from someone who’s been called “a wizard with words.” Linda Eggerss would rather be known as a writer than anything else. And you can be, too.
Linda Eggerss has taught high school journalism students how to write sparkling copy…
She has won PRSA’s highest award, the Silver Anvil, by partnering with the U.S. Department of Energy, a water-starved town in Kansas, and the New York Stock Exchange to introduce Maytag’s front-loading Neptune washer to American consumers…
She has written and edited kitchen and bath magazines for the Better Homes and Gardens brand…
She wrote the executive summary of a proposal that won Leo A Daly the renovation work on Omaha’s Burlington Station for KETV…
And now she’s putting her writing and PR experience to work for clients as a communications consultant.
