Dr Samuel Johnson, author of what is regarded as the first English dictionary (1755) famously observed “No man but a blockhead ever wrote, except for money.” As someone who is paid to write – but yet may still be a blockhead – Peter will suggest some ways to improve your writing, which will boil down to: write less, write better.
