Good luck on the media course!

Cathy, your blog is a great example of how you tell stories to add more pizzazz. I love it!

Kim, isn't that true? I've found a ton of inspiration in poetry form and meter.

Hi Ramiro! Happy to see you here. I think we should always be looking to improve our writing, no matter what genre we're working in at the time. Thanks for subscribing, by the way. Sent you a note a short time ago.

About a Month ago I started working on a short story (fiction) for a contest. I agree with Cathy – when the business writing just isn't flowing, or the ideas aren't coming, I'd take a break and work on my story and it seemed to stimulate ideas and a fresher perspective that translated into my business writing.

At least it does for me.

When I feel like my business writing is getting too rote, I take a break for some creative writing to get the pizazz back. Another approach I use is telling stories. It's one of the best ways to juice up business writing.
