Another version I'd love feedback on:
"Cooling a Fevered Planet" is a lively and information-packed picture book for grownups. It is serious but not solemn, irreverent but never indifferent. At fewer than 80 pages this graphical survey of the economics, policy and politics of solving the climate crisis leaves the reader energized and informed.
This lively and information-packed picture book for grownups is serious but not solemn, irreverent but never indifferent.
I like this a lot.
I'd cut the number of pages in favor of "This graphical survey economically communicates the essentials of solving the climate crisis, leaving you informed, energized and ready for action."
I'm assuming the book includes a call to action.
Stating the pages a) suggests that I, as a reader, don't have the patience and/or interest (which I might, you don't know) and b) makes it seem like a pamphlet. I see the interest in advertising a short read, but I think it leaves an impression you might not want.
Final version?
"Cooling a Fevered Planet" is a lively and information-packed picture book for grownups. It is serious but not solemn, irreverent but never indifferent. This succinct graphical survey of the economics, policy and politics of solving the climate crisis leaves the reader informed and energized.
short instead of concise? Or succinct. I think succinct is better, and changed it. And changed to informed and energize.
I like succinct.
Sounds great.
I do too, and I would say informed and energized. You know, now that I'm informed, I'm energized to go solve this thing.
Sounds good, Typo.
So I went to my first F2F networking thing for area small businesses. It went well -- a lot of people really came up and asked me about wordslinger, so people were approaching me, which was awesome.
And I won a prize; a 2 day web design training seminar, which is so perfect, I can't even say.
ION, I am exhausted, and going to drop down dead in a few minutes.
Reversing informed and energized. Erin don't drop dead. Just nap.
I slept. Bed at 9:30 pm, up at 5 am. WHAT SICK MONSTER HAVE I BECOME?
Thanks for the marketing conversation earlier this week, Thread-mates.
I wish I had some major epiphany but I appreciate exploring the subject...and I got some lovely support via email! I always wanted to be supported in email.
The week has gotten better and I've received some wonderful feedback from Partner.
Two of her walkers are in breach of their contracts. They are being super blatant about it because they don't think that Partner will follow through. She's widely known as a softie.
One was SO disrespectful as to smile, wave and laugh as Partner shot photos of her with dogs she cannot, by law, walk. The nerve!
Weeellll. There is a new sheriff in town and injunctions are being filed and damages will be forthcoming. Our case is ironclad.
Tonight, I made a bunch of calls to clients who may be on the purloined list. The conversations all went really well and after reporting the results to Partner, she wrote back that she could never have made these calls and finds this function priceless.
My chest if puffed, I must say.
It really is easy for me...enjoyable even...so I'm glad to be doing it for her and the company.
Plus? One couple is planning a baby...sooooo...a potential client for me! Bonus all around.
