Amplifying writing with the write choice of words

“Writers’ Hacks, Vol.1” has Qwoted editor-in-chief Lou Carlozo introduce us to the power of words.

He talks about structuring sentences in a way with use of “power verbs” that make your writing reflect your thinking in a precise manner.

He demonstrates this ability by sharing a passage from his in-progress book and then re-engineering the same passage.

The power of words is also reflected in his this week’s Bankadelic podcast, “SPECIAL REPORT: RACE, RACISM AND BANKING–SINS AND SOLUTIONS IN THE WAKE OF THE GEORGE FLOYD KILLING.”

Carlozo writes,

“Bankadelic” is a spunky finance and banking podcast that picks up where my last effort, which garnered 125,000 listens, left off. Of all the podcast episodes I’ve ever recorded, this one ranks as the most rewarding, though inspired by tragic events. Please take a listen, connect with me on LinkedIn and let me know what you think.”
