Jack Rawlins' book is filled with practicle and creative ideas to not only get you writing, but get you back to your first love of writing.

This book is geared toward essay writers, however, I have found it very helpful in my own writing of novels and short stories. There are ideas for getting ideas, harvesting them, and planting the seeds to grow into proper essays, stories, novels or whatever else takes your fancy.

I recomend this to any writer, especialy those with frequent writers block. It will definitly help you get out of it, and hopfuly stay out of it.

This is such a readable work. Very commonsense for students. JR writes down-to-earth,
so we "get it." As if he's sitting with us in a late-night cafe and just talking writing.
And...he covers the complex stuff in a way that sorts it out, brings it down to the simple.
Like a good book by Harold Klemp, this book makes things clear, with a natural enthusiasm.
For English 101/research writing, this could serve as the only text - with little else!

THE WRITER'S WAY is an acceptable (if not particularly well-organized) basic resource for writing skill development.

I am in a composition 112 class at Mansfield University. We use your book almost every day. The book is very helpful. It has a lot of very interesting essays in it that explian what you are trying to teach. We also do alot of homework out of your book which really helps with many of our essays that we write. I used another book for my first english class here at college and yours in a much better addition. The Writers Way help explian many errors that i have made in the past on essays. The Writers Way has not olny helped me but has been very helpful for your teacher and other students in the class.
