It takes courage to write a good text. Courage to put the most important thing at the top and to write it in such a way, that everyone gets it immediately. It sounds simple, but it is harder than you think. You have to ask probing questions (i.e. 'What is the intention?'), and 'translate' the writers' intended message so that it immediately makes it clear to the reader. It also takes courage to be creative. To tell or show the message or story in an original way, and to add a touch of drama if necessary to spice up the content. And what about love? Ask yourself what the reader (or the visitor, the user) needs when she, he or they sees your content or message. If you love your reader, your target group, and your profession, you will start to write texts which are pleasant to read and will give you great joy to write. This will result in better advertisements, articles, banners, blogs, brand story's, letters, campaigns, flyers, brochures, etc., and your customers will return for more.
'The silence of Barbara Synge' provides a fascinating companion volume to Bill McCormack's acclaimed 'Fool of the family' (2000), a biography of the playwright J.M. Synge (1871-1909). Taking the alledged death of Mrs John Hatch (née Synge) in 1767 as a focal point, this book explores the varied strands of the Synge family tree in eighteenth and nineteenth century Ireland. Key events in the family's history are carefully documented, including a suicide in 1769 which is echoed in an early Synge play, the effects of the famine which influenced 'The playboy of the western world' in 1907, and the behaviour of Francis Synge at the time of the union. 'The silence of Barbara Synge' is a unique work of cultural enquiry, combining archival research, literary criticism, and religious and medical history to pull the strands together and relate them to the family's literary descendent J.M. Synge. ;
