Book Description

November 17, 2005 0764125796 978-0764125799
Books in the popular Easy Way series present basic subject matter in clear language. Material is presented in a way that makes these books ideal as self-teaching guides, but Easy Way titles are also preferred by many teachers as supplements to classroom textbooks. General readers seeking out information often turn to Easy Way titles for general background and orientation when starting out in new career-related fields. All Easy Way books contain both short quizzes and longer tests with answers to help readers gauge their learning progress. Subject heads and key phrases are set in a second color for quick and easy reference. This all-new title discusses, analyzes, and offers exercises in prose forms. It describes uses of written verbal imagery and symbolism and instructs on descriptive and dramatic writing, with sample passages to demonstrate good style.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent teaching resource/writing resource, February 26, 2006
This review is from: Creative Writing the Easy Way (Barron's E-Z) (Paperback)
I've used this text for two years now to teach a university community education class offered by my school's English department.

Heather Hirschi offers a wealth of ideas on teaching writing and writing fiction. Thus, the book is a good tool for writers and writing teachers alike.

Developed out of her own experience teaching university community education courses, Creative Writing the Easy Way contains sections on getting started, elements of fiction-making, form and genre, and the ever-important process of revision. Included are useful exercises and examples from published works that add to the various topics.

A glossary of terms gives students of fiction writing the lexicon to discuss student works. All in all, the book offers a high return.
