    Presentation - Psychology of Words with S.D. Huston

    Words cannot change reality, but they can change how people perceive reality. Words create filters through which people view the world around them. Knowing how to use the psychology of words, the deliberate choices of words and syntax can enhance your writing, whether writing nonfiction or fiction, and in your copywriting and marketing materials.
