Writing to Persuade: How to Bring People Over to Your Side by Trish Hall
Did not finish book. Stopped at 33%.
This is not at all a book that will teach you how to be a more persuasive writer. Instead, it is a memoir (name-dropping session) of a remarkably unremarkable life and career.
You can find a more useful guide on writing on a Buzzfeed listicle, and the listicle won’t take as long. Speeding it up didn’t help; she never gets to the point…which should be persuasive writing, right?
If I can persuade just one person to not spend their time, money, and energy on this book, then I may have actually learned something from this book.
