By focusing on the "do-nots." this book will help readers increase confidence in their writing.7These browsable nuggets of advice are quick to read, understand, and implement There are only two kinds of writing: lively, warm, personal prose that readers devour; and the rest.

By learning what not to do, the reader will be set free to create the kind of writing that makes fiction and nonfiction crackle with life.
