It's the 5-day work writing revolution!

Feel more confident. Impress your boss. Get better results.


5 minutes a day. 5 days. $5. Delivered direct to your inbox.

Maybe your writing's not up to scratch...

  • You know your writing's too waffly but you don’t know how to change

  • You're forever second-guessing yourself – writing and rewriting. It takes so long

  • One more track-change or criticism from your boss and you just might lose it

  • You'd rather gnaw your own leg off than write another report, and it's all just too hard

Here’s the thing. If writing isn’t your happy place, there’s a good chance the writing style you learned at school, at uni, and from your old boss isn’t doing you any favours. And that sucks.

But the good news is in only 5 days for $5 you can turn things around.

Or maybe you're just looking to upskill.

  • You’re starting a new job and want to make a great first impression

  • You’ve been looking for a writing course but everything looks boring AF

  • You’re interested in the School of unProfessional Writing and want to test the waters

Whatever your motivation, you can improve your writing. Fast.

With one task every day for 5 days and a tiny USD$5 investment, you can start to turn your writing around. Your skills and your confidence will go through the roof because you'll know:

  • What works for modern readers

  • What research tells us about good writing today

  • What good, professional documents look and feel like

  • What's going on in your brain when you write and when you read

  • What's getting in your way and holding you back

5 days. 5 emails. 5 tasks to improve your writing, immediately.

When you buy this course, a 5-minute video will land in your inbox every day for 5 days.

Each bite-size chunk of writing wisdom is packed with real-life samples of great documents and before and after examples you can apply to improve your work writing for life. Turn your work writing around in only 5 days with 5 practical tasks to put your learning into practice.

  • Writing can only be called "good" if it works for the people reading it

  • Readers today are different than readers in the past

  • It takes neuroscience and psychology to fix our writing

Day 1 - Reconnecting with your reader self

Day 2 - Experience being a writer

  • We're not very conscious of some of the things happening when we're writing

  • To improve our writing, we need to change our behaviour

  • To change our behaviour, we need to be aware of what's going on first

Day 3 - Plain language is all around us

  • Plain language has been around for 80 years

  • It's hugely research-based

  • It's everywhere!

  • It works so well, you don't even notice it until it's pointed out to you

Day 4 - Try it - Turn off the writer switch

  • Get tangible tools for embedding your new ways of writing

  • Speaking is the antidote for bad writing

  • Strengthen your new writing muscles

Day 5 - Let's redefine the professional voice

  • Everyone wants to be seen as professional

  • Modern professional is different than traditional professional

  • Formality is no longer professional if it's causing problems for readers

  • Today we get clear on the alternative approach that will always make your writing (and you!) shine

Here’s how it works

The first video will be delivered immediately once you buy. Then, every weekday morning for 4 more days, a new email will be in your inbox. I’m doing it this way because this is about work writing, so it makes sense to get the videos on work days, first thing, when you’re ready to start your day. That way, you get a tip in the morning and have all day to practice it!

Who's joined the revolution?

People who have improved their work writing tell it like it is.

  • "Thank you so much for running this series of plain writing videos – I have found them very engaging, and I am already putting your points into action through my work. I think it might take me a little while to do this intuitively, but I am committed to it. I had reading difficulties as a child and even now I mainly read for work rather than for pleasure. So, your comments about not overwhelming the reader with too much info really resonated with me."

  • "Just WOW. Simplified professional writing! I love this so much. Thank you Miraka I feel so uplifted and competent now."

  • "I've just finished the Writing Revolution and it's been eye opening. I was skeptical (can I use that word LOL) but it's true - plain English is not dumbing down the message it just makes it a hell of a lot easier to read. LOVING this and the changes it's helped me make!"

  • "In a small number of short and easy to understand lessons, a wealth of ways to improve my writing have been discovered - Thanks !"

  • "A great mix of research, tools, and practice to get me thinking - and improving - my writing immediately. I'm already writing better!"

  • "You know it's going to be a great course when within 10 seconds of starting, you're thinking "I'm going to enjoy this!" These lessons offer a huge amount of value for a small investment of your time. The examples illustrated the points really well, and the exercises, downloads and tools were super useful. Miraka enables you to convert what you learn into practice IMMEDIATELY! Amazing."

Who we are and why can you trust us

I started out teaching English as a second language. Then I worked for 14 years as a plain language specialist at Write Limited, the world's biggest plain language consultancy. 

My power lies in my experience. I can teach 22 different workshops, from critical thinking to writing for lawyers. Over the years I’ve read over 10,000 pieces of writing from workshop participants, written by people from every level of every industry.

Everyone worries about the same things when it comes to writing - things like sounding too casual or not being taken seriously enough.

I get it. But I also come with solutions because I’ve solved the same problem for people thousands of times.

I’m an author, speaker, and coach. I’ve taught thousands of people and hundreds of organisations plain language and clear communications.

And I call bullshit on old-fashioned professional writing. Outdated writing rules are to blame for time-wasting, confusing, alienating communication, so quit it and come with me on the Let’s Get unProfessional waka.

I’ve taken what I know to be truth, based on my decades of teaching and writing experience, and put it all at your fingertips. So, if you’re looking to improve your writing in a way that’s no stress, and not boring (with just a wee bit of badassery), you’re in the right place.

What are you waiting for?

Improve your work writing in 5 days.

5 days. 5 emails. 5 practical tasks. One tiny investment for big, fast, long-lasting returns.
