Review
Blazing Pencils: A Guide to Writing Fiction and Essays is a wonderfully clear "how-to" guide to writing fiction and essays. The more than 150 writing ideas in Blazing Pencils help the aspiring writer every step of the way in writing a complete story or essay. One of the great pieces of advice to young writers by their more experienced (and published) elders has been to "write, write and keep on writing". But like any other craft, writing has its own tips, tricks and techniques. Blazing Pencils will help shape and channel all that practice so ardently advocated to its most productive and rewarding end results. -- Midwest Book Review

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Blazing Pencils: A Guide to Writing Fiction and Essays/With Writing Notebook (Paperback)
Pick up one of the cheapest used copies. There's a great overview for lower level writers about the five paragraph essay. If your students are like mine, you'll use M. S. Willis's lesson every term. Some of the better students will get the idea of a thesis and topic sentences just from the one lesson. Others will neet a blazing pencil inserted under the fingernails. Ah, give it a shot.
