This was a lean & meaty book on the craft of writing. Like any good steak, you want to take it a bite at a time and dive into the subjects of each chapter. For a relatively short work on writing, there is a lot of good information and education to be had in "Write Away".
"Write Away" will have you writing better Right Away!
