1.0 out of 5 stars My good deed for 1999, April 8, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The ABC's of Writing Fiction (Hardcover)
Now, I know why nobody bothered to comment on this book before. Seriously, it is an insult for someone to jot down whatever just for the sake of selling a book. This book pales in comparison with works like "If you want to write" by Brenda Ueland, "Writing for Fiction" by Jon Franklin and "On Writing Well" by William Zinsser.

Well, this is my good deed for the year!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best writing seems as easy as ABC..., December 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The ABC's of Writing Fiction (Hardcover)
but, of course, it's not. I found Ann Copeland's book very helpful and encouraging. She reminded me that writing, although a struggle, should always be fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ABC's of Writing Fiction, December 29, 2001
By 
Lucinda Smith (Fremont, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The ABC's of Writing Fiction (Hardcover)
Being a newcomer to writing, I have found Ann Copeland's guide to writing very helpful. The entries are in alphabetical order and are all cross-referenced, making hopping around to read more on a particular subject of interest simple. I am a nonlinear thinker and find it easier to remember things if they are learned within a framework of my own interests at the time. In this book I can find a subject of interest easily and inevitably end up bouncing from one related entry to another, always finding new wisdom and important reminders in the suggestions.
