Tackling this troublesome tongue

Our Company
The Machinery of Language
   


The problem with English, quite frankly, is that it’s unruly.

The regulations governing English usage are constantly changing. They’re tough to name and tougher to obey. Working professionals who write comfortably early in their careers soon lose their zest for the task, wondering why the individual style that once served them well has so quickly become inadequate.

The issues surrounding our language are complex; the expertise they demand is equally so. That’s why Stiff Sentences has evolved a unique business model, founded on five exceptional characteristics.

Diverse Talent Base

The members of our writing team hail from a wide variety of professional backgrounds: journalism, film and video, publishing, public policy and the military. This breadth of experience broadens our ability to take on projects in virtually any genre, any field, any medium.

Capacity

Because Stiff Sentences is a bona fide team of writers accustomed to working in close collaboration—and because we approach our work methodically, consistently—we can handle writing projects on every scale, from complex national communications campaigns to one-off print ads with super-tight deadlines.

Remarkable Quality

Stiff Sentences was the first company of writers to register to the ISO 9002 and ISO 9001:2000 standards. Our quality-management system ensures diligent, scrupulous client service from first contact to final draft.

Professional Development

All Stiff Sentences writers undergo a rigorous and continuous program of professional development. Once a week, we convene to study topics that relate directly to the work we do: everything from the classical principles of rhetoric and persuasion to the fine points of writing for the web.


Intelligent Environment

From our sophisticated IT network to our 500-volume research library, we’re surrounded by a wealth of tools and resources that bring a world of knowledge within our reach.
