What can I say.....I ramble when I write!!I needed help expressing myself clearly and persuasively. If you want to improve your written communication skills, I would certainly buy this easy to read book. You really can't go wrong. Shipping was fast!

This opened up a whole area that I never thought of before and got me thinking of different ways in which writing that is just more than single focused on the way I look at it.

This book made me a better writer and I ain't lying about that. Author is an economist and if you can make a utility of satisfaction sound sexy you deserve a pulzer. I love getting my Reviews UP!

I only used the sections of the book with examples of various ways to say something, which were helpful.

Fantastic book about the craft. No matter what you do for a living, this book will make you better.
