One of the better guides I've read for novices, this book focuses specifically on article and non-fiction writing. It is practical rather than creative, and homes in on the business aspect of writing. For writers seeking to put bread on the table by selling articles under their own name, this book is a great guide to keep around. I recommend it highly. If your aims are more toward the business of creative writing, this book is less useful, though it is encouraging and can get you thinking laterally. Bear in mind, this is a business book. It offers nothing in the way of improving fiction or poetry.
