A writer does more than work with words.
The heart becomes involved, often draining us emotionally. The logical side of our brain helps balance out emotions. When we venture beyond our desks and interact as Writer with the world, the ways we present ourselves and the opportunities we explore enrich us when we return to our little corner desks.
Joan Ramirez discusses all of the above and more in this
episode of Writers on Writing. Her guidebook The Write Rules covers the various
aspects of speaking, writing, presentations, and representing our official “writer-dom”
to the world.
Joan Ramirez holds a Master of Science in Business, Medical,
and Technical Journalism as well as two others in English as a Second Language
and Elementary Education/Autism. She has published on a variety of topics from
cochlear implants to the economy and has conducted workshops –domestic and
foreign–on the nuances of business communications for managers and start-up
companies. She is the leader of her own enterprise with training programs (over
twenty-five years of expertise) for entrepreneurs at all levels. For many years
she trained the technical staff of a large engineering firm in the nuances of
business writing and verbal presentations.
The Write Rules, her latest publication, offers
communications guidelines for becoming an entrepreneur. She has short
stories in several anthologies and is working on a historical suspense trilogy
set in WWII. She can be reached at writerjr1044@gmail.com.
