Description:
Learning to write well demands considerable focus and practice. It is not instinctual, natural or inevitable; it has to be worked at. In a deeply literate society such as ours, good writing matters. Writing is heavily relied on to make things happen at work, in the community, and in personal life. This book will help improve the reader's writing skill by relating it to more familiar forms of communication, especially conversation.KEY TOPICS: This non-technical and commonsensical approach to style combines a clear guide to stylistic revision and a mini-anthology of professional prose stylists. Topics include: writing and conversation, finding and focusing action, developing characters, revising, making connections, and saying what you mean. For anyone wishing to improve their writing style.
