by | Uncategorized | 0 comments

On Fridays at 12 pm Eastern, Deborah Bosley, owner of The Plain Language Group, and I are hosting the Plain Language Weekly Club on Clubhouse. Please join us! Our casual, candid conversations include people from all corners of the plain language world: consultants, customer experience experts, government communicators, translators, and professors. We’ve welcomed health insurance professionals, legal experts, scientists, project managers, and engineers. Basically, if you care about writing in plain language, we hope you’ll join.
