5.0 out of 5 stars Writing is natural as opposed to formalistic or burdensome., November 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Writing Habit (Paperback)
David Huddle's text is a reflection of the man, himself. Without making the writer feel tutored or lectured, Huddle approaches the creation of fiction as a natural outgrowth of the writer's abilities, thereby making his points accessible and usable by writers of all levels. Huddle shares with his readers his natural approach to writing, making it part of his everyday life, that grew from his habits of living. Although he shares with us the techniques and methods that work for him, he never says that his approach must be the writer's approach or that his approach is the only way to do things. He leaves that decision to the reader. Huddle's comments on character development, restraint, plot development and other writing techniques are invaluable and his text is a must for any writer, regardless of level or ability, who is serious about becoming a better writer.

5.0 out of 5 stars If You Are Serious About Becoming A Writer, January 27, 2010
This review is from: The Writing Habit (Paperback)
If you are serious about becoming a writer, this is the one and only craft book you will ever need to purchase and read. I have purchased this book seven times and loaned it seven times--only to never have it returned! This alone says enough about the value of the insights and dictums within. David Huddle is a generous individual and a gifted instructor. To read his thoughts is to buy into every aspect of writing, especially the discipline required. Geraldine Fincannon
