This class is exactly what I've been looking for. I've been writing and reviewing grants for many years and I still struggle with editing. How do I make this information clear to the reader? What do I focus on when I don't have a lot of time? This class gave me the tools I need to simplify and structure the editing process. I can't wait to review my next grant!

I have been a grant writer for 10 years, having learned almost entirely though on the job experience. I am surprised by how many practical tips I learned from this course, and what a relief it is to actually have some structure and principles to put into practice in my daily writing. I wish I would have found Grants Magic years ago. I'm excited to explore more courses.

Unlike many webinars that I can view with glazed eyes and minimal focus, this workshop was engaging and useful. I took away several easy-to-remember tools that I can use right away, such as the 'meat cleaver' and the pruning method. I look forward to learning more from Maryn Boess!

“Power Writing for Nonprofits” reveals the secret of putting magic back into your writing: return to simplicity and understand how your own brain does the conjuring. And Maryn Boess’ humor, metaphors and step-by-step instruction make for an enjoyable 90 minute power-package. The course made me want to charge into my next writing project! I loved the practical writing goals set out by the course: improve speed and clarity. I’ve experienced being frozen in front of a blank page, struggling to find my message and convey it effectively. This course delivers on its promise to lay out a structure and keys to unlock a way through all that. The written materials that accompany the videos gave me the feel of being at a live workshop, participating in writing exercises and experiencing “aha” insights. I’m committed to following-up on the additional references and taking Maryn up on her offer to answer questions and help me in the future. GrantsMagicU has given me a solid foundation for my grant seeking through the other courses I’ve taken and I was eager for this Power Writing course to open up. No more fumbling to get started on my writing, no more crumpled “start over” drafts in the recycle bin for me! I highly recommend the Power Writing course and I look forward to the new set of course offerings that are available now at GrantsMagic. Thanks so much, Maryn Boess, for making your courses the real deal--the absolute best I’ve taken.

The information in this course is incredible! I've been writing for many years and thought I knew all the "tricks". Maryn provided MANY new tools that I'll be able to use to fine tune my grant writing.

Maryn does it again! Power Writing for Nonprofits is packed with applicable information presented in a fun and interesting way. The course offers ideas for seasoned and beginning writers as well as writers in the nonprofit world and beyond. Mary Tewksbury, Michigan Grant Writer and Researcher

As always, Maryn brings substance and clarity to her topic. Her course on Power Writing eliminates that fear of a blank page and inspires one to begin putting pen to paper! Thank you.

I highly recommend this course for new and experienced grant writers. It is well organized and effectively presented and will either keep you or break you from bad habits or outdated modes of writing. This course will give you more confidence as a writer and an editor. The self-run format also makes it easier to fit into one's schedule.

Power Writing for Grants is a beautifully organized and comprehensive review of what it takes to write well. I especially appreciate the tips on proofreading.

A wonderful overview that's actually practical, for newbies and for those of us who've done it a long time and are mired in our own routines.
