Transform the way you write.
Master the building blocks of language to write clearly, confidently, and effectively.
We turn multi-tasking marketers and business owners into strong, accomplished writers.
Most business owners and marketers learn to write through trial and error. You pick up tips here and there, rely on what ‘sounds right’, and find ways to get by.
But chances are, you’re carrying gaps in your knowledge that go right back to school. Maybe grammar lessons never clicked. Maybe no one ever explained how sentences really work, or how to write with structure and flow. You’ve probably found ways to get by – but deep down, you know it holds you back.
You feel it when writing takes longer than it should.
When you’re unsure if something sounds right.
When editing feels overwhelming because you can’t pinpoint what’s wrong.
When you read great writing and think, I could never do that.
And that’s frustrating. Because you’re smart, capable, and creative – but without the right tools, you can’t show it fully. You know you could do more, write better, and feel more confident… if only someone actually taught you how.
Clean Slate Copy School teaches you how writing really works, from the foundations up. So you can write with clarity, confidence, creativity and control, in every part of your work.

I was lucky enough to attend Catherine's training on thought leadership. I found it to be insightful, thought-provoking and full of practical tips and ideas I could apply to my content and that of my clients right away. Even in a larger group, I felt valued and included.
