If you are fascinated by writers and writing, The Writing Wright offers a box of chocolates you can’t refuse.

• Down-to-earth instruction on the glue of writing
• When Tom Clancy learned about submarines

Richly illustrated by the author, this book is one of those that you plan to pick up for just a moment and then an hour later you find you’re still reading it. And you will do the same thing again the next day. The Writing Wright draws you in and teaches you something about writing – lessons you can learn over and over.
