The Clarity Edit: Write Clear Business Messages in Half the Time

Ruby Johnson is a business writing coach and the founder of the Clarity Studio, a practice that helps companies replace tangled prose with plain language. She spent the first decade of her career as a reporter and business editor for national publications, where she learned the editor's first lesson: the best writing is invisible. That lesson became the foundation of her work when she moved into corporate communications, leading messaging for technology companies through product launches, executive speeches, and quarterly board updates.

In 2017 she founded the Clarity Studio to bring the discipline of editing to people who do not think of themselves as writers. Her workshops and coaching programs have helped teams at startups, mid-size firms, and Fortune 500 companies cut drafting time by half—the same promise at the heart of *The Clarity Edit*. She is a frequent speaker on professional communication and writes *The Clear Inbox*, a newsletter read by thousands of professionals who want shorter email chains and faster decisions.

Ruby lives in Chicago, where she is at work on her next book, about clear presentations. To read her newsletter and download free writing templates, visit claritystudiowrites.com or connect with her on LinkedIn.
