highly recommended

A complete course in the art of writing and an essential reference for any working or would-be writer of any kind. Step-by-step it shows how to come up with ideas, get past writer's block, create an irresistible opening, develop an effective style, choose powerful words and master grammar, rewrite, and much, much more.

Great book on writing better!

If you find that my review is poorly written, put the blame on me and not Mr Provost and you could see the reasons why I have read this book.
Mr Provost filled the book with examples that are easy to understand and he had styled the book in a reader friendly and comprehensive format.

You could read the book from page 1 to the end and undergo the systematic built up to better writing or you could easily refer to the relevant sections without feeling lost.

The only shortcoming of this book it that it is concise and could not provide more in depth explanation on some terms like "normative" and "objective" use of noun. However, Mr Provost has done a wonderful job of balancing the need of the general public to be a good writer against that of a linguist.

Awesome and practical!!

Of all the writing books I own, this has got to be my favorite one. It's compact and full of practical examples of do's and dont's. Wished to have discovered this book sooner, as it would have helped me in school and overcomed my fear with writing sooner...better late than never...writing is awesome!

Great Reading

I really enjoyed reading part of this book, it is informative and funny at the same time, unfortunately I have not finished the book, I lost it when I moved and need to buy another copy.

Fast but informative reading

This is a very condensed book on ways to improve your writing with handy little tips that either steer you, or confirm any uncertain points you may have had about your creative writing style. Yes, it is a little old school but without knowing the basics your writing will never improve.
