Discover the timeless craft of writing

While AI is producing reams of generic and tasteless writing, this course takes you back to the basics —  the timeless craft of writing itself.

The better you understand it, the easier it will be not only to outshine AI-generated content, but also to prompt ChatGPT, Claude, and other language models to draft higher-quality writing.

This isn't a course about writing with AI.

It teaches the key principles needed to produce exceptional writing, whether you are using your own hand or a machine to draft it.

Writing With Flair has been updated to include a lecture on how to apply the four principles of good writing to improve AI-assisted writing.

Students who wish to dive deeper into the topic of AI writing may consider enrolling in Shani Raja's newest course, AI Writing Mastery.

Writing secrets of the world's best journalists

Imagine being able to write with the style and flair of journalists on top newspapers, who are skilled at producing punchy, potent articles for millions of readers every day.

In this program, Shani introduces you to a range of exquisite writing tricks and tactics that most people outside the journalism profession are ignorant of, but which can make the difference between copy that is dull and flat, and prose that is lively and captivating.

In this acclaimed, 7-hour intensive writing training, Shani reveals how such accomplished editors do their magic.

It boils down to mastering just four basic ingredients: simplicity, clarity, elegance and evocativeness.

Shani shows how a proper understanding of this "secret sauce" is all you need to stand out in virtually any field of writing. 

THE COURSE COMES WITH A 30-DAY, FULL MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE, SO THERE'S NO RISK IN ENROLLING.

A complete writing system

In this program, you won't get the usual “writing tips” you can find all over the internet and in other similar online programs.

The four ingredients form the basis of a complete writing system designed to drive you to the summit of slick writing — very fast.

The training may turn you into a confident author of blogs, books and business writing in as little as a few weeks.

At the very least, you will understand how to infuse power and beauty into the soul of your writing to make it stand out dramatically.

Whatever your writing ability now, you'll find yourself quickly transformed into an artistic composer of prose, whose copy sparkles with a rare sort of quality few people will understand, let alone be capable of emulating.

The secret sauce of flair

In the course, you will learn how to optimise each of the four ingredients so that, just like the world's finest editors, you can turn humdrum writing into something extraordinary every time. As a result, your copy will always be punchy, sharp, graceful and stimulating — the hallmarks of pretty much all exceptional prose.

In the SIMPLICITY section, you'll discover how to…

• Write in plain, upbeat language

• Steer clear of official words that weigh your writing down

• Shun redundant words that make your sentences move slowly

• Discard filler and hedging language that produce "hot air"

• Avoid needlessly complex sentences that bog readers down

• Stop yourself rambling and repeating yourself unnecessarily
