Description

Sharpen your skills for connecting with readers!

This second edition of Interpretive Writing will help you focus your writing to enrich your reader's experiences by crafting compelling, thematic stories that reveal new meanings and foster personal connections. The principles of natural history and cultural heritage interpretation demonstrate the profound impact of effective communication processes on your readers. A particular emphasis is on making intellectual and emotional connections and incorporating powerful words into your writing projects.

The first edition of Interpretive Writing was released in 2006. This new edition is through updating of that book, featuring all new chapters including "Writing for the Web," "Crafting Messages for Children," Challenges to Agency Writing,” and new evaluation techniques.
