  Summary of this Book...

This is a collection of essays, published by Writer's Digest, to assist writers everywhere. There are some terrific, insightful lessons taught that will help you with your writing, even if you AREN'T a novelist.

  This type of Book is good for...

Anyone who writes fiction, even if it's just short stories. There is so much in here to help you pump your writing up. In fact, it's also good for readers, because it has given me a sharper sense of what to look for (and good advice to share) when I R&R on Writing.com

  I especially liked...

the wide variety of tips! Characters, dialogue, plot structure - all of it was covered.

  When I finished reading this Book I wanted to...

Write, write, write some more! Also read it again, buy my own copy to mark up, and um, write some more! I know that to get a lot of this to stick, I'll have to read it again, and I'm looking forward to it.

  This Book made me feel...

Excited, enthusiastic, and optimistic about writing.

  The author of this Book...

There were several different authors, one editor. The writer's did a fantastic job of explaining and suggesting; the editor did a good job with oragnizing.

  I recommend this Book because...

It is a great way to hone your skills, and it really teaches you something.

  I don't recommend this Book because...

It's not a straight read, it takes awhile to get through. I read three or four essays a night, then had to think about them for awhile.

  Further Comments...

This was very intersting to read, and I felt like I learned a lot.
