Takeaways
One of the most powerful elements of the book is guidance on professional writing. This comprises both a compelling essay on how to write an article, and an appendix collecting pointers for those intent on professional writing. Readers might not initially appreciate the value of skillful writing in both teaching and leading, but the authors make the case for its critical importance. They offer a useful approach to writing using a ‘read, think, speak, and write’ model. This pairs with a supporting appendix that explores the unwritten rules of publishing new writers often learn over time, but must employ if they aim to publish successfully. Topics include how to find the right publication for your article, working with editors, formatting, publishing etiquette, and the essential issue of dealing with critique. This content alone makes the book worth the investment for those who have considered entering the arena of professional writing, as well as those seeking to refine their written communication to better support their day-to-day responsibilities.
