Still at work? Thanks for keeping the country going. Here’s a little levity to lighten your load!
We dare you to sing this aloud:
REWRITE HELL
(to the tune of ‘Jingle Bells’)
Dashing through typos
The grammar’s gone astray
O’er vagueness we go
Red-lining all the way
I hear alarm bells ring
This needs a full rewrite
The board needs this tomorrow so
I’ll be working through the night
[Chorus]
OH!
Rewrite hell, what’s that smell?
Fingers burnt today
It’s a crime, I ain’t got time
It’s causing huge delays.
Hey!
Rewrite hell, I want to yell
Curse verbosity!
Thank God I have a power tool
Called Credosity!
Got time to rhyme? It’s fun, and great for your ‘writing’ muscles [HINT: Use a rhyming dictionary] .
Have a go, then add your Christmas ditty in the comments below (I’m sure you can beat my effort above!). For inspiration, see the comments on a previous post.
The best rhymes will win a prize: All you can eat for a year from our Online Learning collection!
Thanks for letting us help you become an awesome communicator this year.
We have a huge year planned for 2019. Stay tuned!
Have a wonderful, safe break.

2018 … what a year
We’ve had a biggie!
We trained:
- 1550 people
- from 24 companies, and
- 98 percent of attendees said they’d recommend our training to colleagues!
We’re chuffed to be able to help you. Thank you, from the bottom of our coffee cups.

3. You helped us give $10,062 to teach Indigenous kids
If we trained you this year, you made a big difference to many indigenous kids.
With every course you booked, we donated to the ALNF: Australian Literacy & Numeracy Foundation.
Check out our ALNF Wall of Hands (you might be mentioned!).
Thanks for being part of the solution! (✿◠‿◠)
4. Credosity moved 100% online
In September this year, Credosity became Cloud-only.
This made the tool more accessible to enterprise writers without needing to install software.
We’ve now helped edit over 63 million words into clear, concise communication!
Here’s the full story about why we moved away from installed software.
And here’s the low-down on Credosity’s enterprise-grade security.
