Isn't that horrible? <br /><br />I had to read <i>On Writing Well</i> by William Zimmer for my Long Ridge course. That one was great.<br /><br /><i>The 38 Most Common Fiction Writing Mistakes (And How to Avoid Them)</i> by Jack Bickham is also a good one. <br /><br />One that I thought was fabulous when I reviewed it in 2008 is <i>The Dog Walked Down the Street</i> by Sal Glynn. <br /><br />I want to pick up Donald Maass' book. <br /><br />Now that I've listed a few titles you're probably thinking what I initially said isn't true; but I have close to 40 titles that deal with some aspect of writing and getting published--most of which I haven't read.

I have the Marshall plan and the Orson Scott Card one, but like Kathy, am making a list of the rest. <br /><br />One book I really like, is The Descriptionary - per the cover "the book for when you know what it IS, but don't know what it's CALLED." It's great. <br /><br />I also really like Between the Lines by Jessica Page Morrell and Getting the Words Right: 39 Ways to Improve Your Writing by Theodore A. Rees Cheney. <br /><br />And then just for inspiration, I like Ray Bradbury's Zen in the Art of Writing.V.R.
