Review: Great for Increased Writing Ability... - I am not finished with reading this book, however I read at least two pages of it a night and plan to read it again once I am done. The author pursued a career in writing and mentions the reasons behind why various writing techniques are more appealing than other attempts. You may already know a few things about what the book is about, however it mentions many great perspectives on plenty of ideas and also gives good examples to explain what it is talking about. It is well written and still down to Earth. If you are working on a novel or planning to increase your talent as a short story writer, consider reading this book at least once. The book also has a ton of writing exercises in it. I may do them, eventually, and still recomend them though I have not written my own ideas from the exercises out as of yet. The exercises give readers good ideas to attempt to utilize the techniques being explained. This book is from a wellknown writing course out of New York. I have yet to take the course but still think highly of the book.
Review: Great Book for Beginning Writers - I am a beginning writer and ordered this book along with another book (Immediate Fiction - not as good). This book (GWW) is an outstanding guide for beginners. I took a writing class online from GWW while reading this book and found it to be a great help. I rented four other books from the library on creative writing (fiction writing) and found GWW's book to be the best written, most helpful guide of them all. I have enrolled in another GWW fiction writing class starting soon. Writing is a lot of fun and this book will give you the skills necessary to learn the craft. Highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fiction Writing for Humans
*by M***D on March 19, 2016*

So many books on fiction writing seem to treat fiction writing as though anyone who wants to write fiction is seeking to invent a time traveling device or something. They get so consumed in rules and do this and that thinking that it takes all the fun and excitement out of writing. They really drain a person’s drive to write as I figure most people aren’t aiming to win a Nobel Prize in Literature or National Book Award. This book produced by the Gotham Writers Workshop is of a different character. This book will tell you everything that you need to know with examples, exercises, and straight forward prose that explain the key elements of fiction that one needs to know without creating a sense of fear and foreboding in the would be writer. The message is that: Writing well is difficult, but it is doable with a little hard work and dedication. A book on writing for the average person.
