Writing Well with Roy Peter Clark

By most accounts, today's guest is considered to be America's Writing Coach, Roy Peter Clark!

For more than three decades, Clark has taught writing at the Poynter Institute, a school for journalists in St. Petersburg, Florida, considered among the most prominent such teaching institutions in the world. He graduated from Providence College with a degree in English and earned his PhD from Stony Brook University.

We discuss the current and future employability of writers, as well as many of his seminal works, like Writing Tools: 55 Essential Strategies for Every Writer. We talk about some of my favorite strategies from that book: cut big, then small, fear not the long sentence, vary paragraph length, and order words for emphasis. We also discuss his forthcoming book about writing college essays.

Writers don't want to miss this one!
