THE POWER OF WORDS (half day)
This session is all about unlocking the power of words. It’s full of inspiration, both for hardened wordsmiths as well as less confident writers.
By looking at instances of excellent writing not just from advertising but from fiction, poetry, letters and the wider world, we discover 24 strategies everyone can use to make their copy more rewarding, impactful and effective.
And we work on some simple and fun exercises to help attendees make the most of the power of words. Six Word Memoirs is always a favourite.
