Hello, I'm Glenn

I'm a writer, editor, digital storyteller, and multimedia content creator.

I'm on a constant quest to improve my craft, and I'm passionate about helping others learn how to become better writers.

For nearly 25 years I’ve helped thought leaders shape their ideas into clear and compelling prose and delivered them through creative formats and channels, enabling them to reach millions of people around the world.

The 2 topics I write about

I’ve written hundreds of articles over the past decade, most of which have been focused on my two areas of interest: writing with impact and professional development.

For nearly a decade, I’ve been  sharing the lessons I’ve gleaned first-hand from my career as a professional writer, from my study of hundreds of books and articles about the art and craft of writing well, and from the more than 80 interviews I’ve conducted with bestselling and award-winning authors.

I’m fascinated with the power of words to influence minds, sway emotions, and prompt people to take action, and I believe that anyone, through study and practice, can learn how to write with more impact.

I also write about professional development. I share advice on navigating careers, tackling professional challenges, and tapping into under-utilized talents and skills.

There’s a real hunger for guidance and insights that cuts across generations. My readers range from recent college graduates just starting their first full-time job, to seasoned professionals with decades of experience seeking to inject fresh energy into their job, or tap into talents and skills they need as they enter the next new phase of their career.

4x LinkedIn Top Voice 2015-2018

Ever since I started writing on LinkedIn in 2014 when they first opened up their blogging platform to its members, I’ve never looked back.

I’ve written more than 200 articles primarily focused on my two areas of interest: writing and professional development. My articles have been read more than 2 million times and have generated hundreds of thousands of likes, shares, and comments (I especially like to read and respond to the comments).

In December 2015, I was named one of the first “LinkedIn Top Voices” in recognition of the enormous reach and impact of my writing. I was one of 10 top writers in the “Marketing & Social Media” category.

After being named a “Top Voice” in the “Marketing & Social Media” category again in 2016, in 2017 and 2018 I was named one of 10 top writers in the “Management & Workplace” category.

I’m one of the very few writers on LinkedIn to receive this honor four times.

Write With Impact podcast

In 2015, I launched my podcast, Write With Impact, featuring in-depth interviews with New York Times bestselling authors and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists.

In our conversations my guests dive deep into their writing strategies and share the mindsets and processes that power their writing.

Write With Impact is one of the leading podcasts devoted to the art and craft of writing.

Praise

I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the generous praise I’ve received by writers I admire.
