Yellowlees Douglas has actually checked all the boxes for teaching writing: eight years as an English professor dedicated exclusively to teaching writing, a short story in the Norton Anthology of Post Modern American Fiction, and a doctorate in reading and writing in multi-media environments. She has also conducted extensive research on the reading brain and its implications for teaching writing in virtually every discipline—from anthropology to neurosurgery and management. In addition, she road-tested her easy-to-follow principles with publications in nearly two dozen disciplines, including sociology, organizational behavior, computer science engineering, ophthalmology, and genetics. In addition, she puts her principles to work in advertising, marketing, and PR for an array of Fortune 500 clients.
