Principles
of Good Writing, Volumes I and II
These
two volumes are bursting with information, pointers, and advice to get
you started on your journey to becoming a better writer. Yes, they cover
the basics. In fact they start right off with...what else..what to write
about and.how to get started! (After all, what writer, whether beginning
or experienced, hasn't faced the demon of the blank screen or page?)
More basic building blocks follow: giving your pieces a beginning, middle,
and ending; adding the details that bring your writing to life; using
good words and using them well; achieving clarity through structure.
Later chapters deal with different types and styles of writing, and
how to write for your reader.
Every page of every chapter contains food for thought
and realistic suggestions for handling writing challenges. These are
the tools that will equip you to hone your craft as a writer.
