Arts PRs beware: what not to write

Following our live chat last week on arts PR we asked for the words and phrases you think should be banned from press releases in and around arts and culture. You voted in your droves and with a long list of pet hates and bête noires, we created this neat little visual representing all your submissions.

Simply hover your mouse over and around the words in the visual to see what was blacklisted (the larger the word, the more times it was submitted) and click on any of the words at any time to be taken to our live chat roundup where we offer 13 tips for those working in arts PR.

Agree with the list? Any words we missed out? Let us know by commenting below.
