FROM THE CREATOR OF WRITING WITH FLAIR: HOW TO BECOME AN EXCEPTIONAL WRITER COMES THE JEWEL IN THE CROWN OF SHANI RAJA'S WRITING COURSES...
NINJA WRITING: The Four Levels Of Writing Mastery is designed to take you to the summit of flawless writing.
The course teaches you how to become not just an exceptional writer, but a masterful one.
In Ninja Writing, you'll learn how to embed quality at EVERY LAYER of your writing—whether it’s a blog, article, college essay, cover letter, corporate report or a piece of marketing.
By the end, you’ll know exactly how one piece of writing can be strikingly beautiful while another—on the same subject—bores you to tears.
So, what exactly is a ninja writer?
It's someone who can take disjointed thoughts and ideas and create beautiful narratives out of them.
It is a writer who understands how to structure points elegantly, wrap them into neatly arranged sections, and thread them through exquisitely organized paragraphs.
A ninja writer has mastery over the sentence layer of writing too.
He or she instinctively understands how to tighten loose sentences, sharpen blurred ones, and bring rhythm to those that don't flow well.
Finally, ninja writers wield invincible power over words. They’re able to bring color, variety and freshness into their writing through their word choices, while slicing away any that have lost their edge or carry dead weight.
While a bad writer can make a mess even of the most sublime thinking, a ninja writer’s prose—blogs, essays, or any kind of business writing—always ends up looking spectacularly polished.
Listen up, guys. Great writing isn’t just a nice skill to have. It’s vital to conveying intelligence and professionalism to your bosses, clients and business partners.
Frankly, if you don't have this part of your life handled, you'll probably get fewer career chances and less shots at a promotion.
Instinctively, you know it.
If you’re a blogger, the world may miss out on your brilliant ideas, simply because your writing is too dull or unwieldy to take seriously.
Remember, we live in the internet age, where a growing army of writers are competing to get noticed in an expanding sea of content.
This course will give you an edge. It will get you noticed.
It’ll quickly take your writing to a level of refinement that will mystify anybody who doesn’t know these elite techniques.
Here's a chance to take your writing to a level that simply blows your competition out of the water.
Just the understanding that writing has four layers can make a huge difference to how effectively you communicate.
If you don't know anything about those layers yet, don’t fret.
Only a handful of writers do, and many are editors who work, as I have done, for top news organizations.
They spend day and night bringing order and beauty to whatever article is presented to them.
They know how to focus on areas that bring structure to untidy prose, and a razor-sharp focus to disorderly ideas.
I know because until recently I was an editor at The Wall Street Journal, where I also taught many of the newspaper's journalists how to add style, flair and potency to their articles.
I've also written for The Economist, Financial Times, Bloomberg News and other highly regarded news institutions.
In Ninja Writing, I share most of what I’ve learned at those places alongside some of the best editors in the world.
Once you've learned their secrets, you too will be able to weave magic with your words.
You'll know how to create spellbinding narratives, breathe life to tired sentences, and dazzle readers with the words you choose.
You'll also write with more confidence.
One of the biggest problems novice writers face is not knowing if their writing is any good.
That won’t be a setback for you anymore.
You’ll know that it is good.
Ninja Writing: The Four Levels Of Writing Mastery takes the mystery out of the writing process.
The tricks and tactics here will cause a seismic shift in the quality of your writing, almost immediately.
You’ll express yourself as brilliantly as some of the slickest editors on the planet.
You’ll understand how to turn any kind of mediocre business writing into masterful prose.
The content here goes beyond what is taught in Writing With Flair: How To Become An Exceptional Writer.
In Writing With Flair, I gave you a powerful framework for creating outstanding writing based on the three principles of simplicity, clarity and elegance.
The sweep of Ninja Writing: The Four Levels Of Writing Mastery is much broader.
It covers the whole territory of nonfiction writing, giving you a ground-up-and-top-down view of what’s needed to inject quality into EVERY PORE of your writing.
If Writing With Flair turned you into an exceptional writer, Ninja Writing will mould you into an elite one.
Like my other courses, Ninja Writing steers clear of needlessly complicated jargon. You’ll simply get strategies to help you write with impeccable style and poise.
The course has been designed to take you to the top of the learning curve in as little as a few days.
You’ll discover ways of looking at your writing that will elevate it to a plane most others don’t even know exists.
