How to Write Clearly, Correctly, Persuasively

How do you write a job application, a thank-you card, an email to your bank manager, to your children’s headteacher, to your clients or your boss? How do you prepare a speech to win the argument, get the vote of confidence, or embarrass the bridegroom? Getting these things right – or wrong – can be life-changing.

In this session author and journalist Sam Leith explains the ideas behind his new book Write To The Point: How to Write Clearly, Correctly and Persuasively.

Covering general principles of style and composition, as well as examinations of specific modes of address, Sam will help you to improve the skills and confidence you need to get your message across.

Venue: Informatics Suite, Dulwich College
Price: £10 or £20 including a copy of Write To The Point (RRP £14.99)
