Whether you earn your living from your writing or you are a new writer seeking to improve, "Writing Worth Reading" is an ever-present help. It helps the writer manage the writing process better than any resource I've ever read.It starts with the premise that good reading and thinking are companions to good expository writing and builds from there. It offers everything: from preparing to write to how to think critically to making effective arguments to grammar and punctuation. Loaded with detailed examples and case studies. Original advice and direction for every writing situation. It's compact, easy to read and, for a college textbook, written with refreshing style. "Writing Worth Reading" lives up to its title. It's the best investment in a writing resource I ever made.
