One of the best books on writing I’ve ever read
A comprehensive foundation in writing both for fiction and non fiction, this book will become a permanent part of my toolkit and I believe yours as well.

Excellent Teaching Book
This book is an excellent tool for anyone wanting to write a novel or non-fiction book. I wouldn't say it was definitive, owing to the authors predilection towards novels, and the lack of tips for short stories. If you need an experienced editor/publisher/writer to give you hard facts and skills about writing and editing, this book is top shelf.
