Daphne Gray-Grant

Daphne grew up in the newspaper business. Her family owned a weekly newspaper in Vancouver, BC, Canada. She worked there from the age of 16, writing stories, editing, dealing with newspaper carriers, and even selling the odd advertisement.

After leaving the family business, she became books editor at the daily Vancouver Sun newspaper. Then she moved up to the role of features editor, a job she held for six years, running a large department and being responsible mainly for the daily pages.

From there, she was recruited to the corporate side, becoming the first-ever director of communications for the paper's parent company. On the birth of her triplet children, Daphne briefly left paid employment, but returned a year later in 1995 to launch her own business as a communications consultant.

In addition to helping companies write and produce newsletters, brochures and websites, and manage both internal and external communications, she also coaches corporate writers and copywriters in how to write faster and better.

Daphne is the author of the book 8 1/2 Steps to Writing Faster, Better. She's also the publisher of the popular email newsletter Power Writing that goes out every Tuesday, just like mine, to subscribers around the world.
