Jackie @ Bouquet of Books Danni @ Entertaining InterestsThis week we have been asked to give up titles of writing books which you would recommend to fellow writers' and if not a writer, then what books would you recommend to fellow readers.
Well, as I work all day long helping students at high school learn how to write correctly, the last thing I would like to read is a book giving tips on how to write. Not something I would choose to be entertained with, so I have no titles to share with you, except maybe High School English books and I am sure you don't want any of those, sorry!
But I will let you know that I learn by reading lots of books in different genres and various authors at different levels in their career. I take from them what I find in the way they write, how they express themselves and where and how, they describe their characters and story settings. Working out what suits me and my writing. I also make note of what I don't like and what I find boring in a book, ensuring I don't fall into the same traps in my writing.
Of course the more you write, the more proficient you become.
