Hello bookworms! I'm looking for some books about writing and some textbooks.
* On Writing by Stephen King * Revision and Self-Editing by James Scott Bell (or other books by this author) * Writing the Breakout Novel by Donald Maass * The Fire in Fiction by Donald Maass * The Amazing Story Generator: Creates Thousands of Writing Prompts by Jay Sacher * The Right Word: Correcting Commonly Confused, Misspelled, and Misused Words by Elizabeth Morrison * The Language of Fiction: A Writer's Stylebook Paperback by Brian Shawver * If You Want to Write: A Book about Art, Independence and Spirit by Brenda Ueland * The Making of a Story: A Norton Guide to Creative Writing by Alice LaPlante * The Chicago Manual of Style, 16th Edition * The Copyeditor's Handbook: A Guide for Book Publishing and Corporate Communications by Amy Einsohn * How to Write a Damn Good Novel: A Step-By-Step No Nonsense Guide to Dramatic Storytelling by James N. Frey * McGraw-Hill Handbook of English Grammar and Usage, 2nd Edition by Mark Lester and Larry Beason
Just trying my luck with used local books before I order them online.
If you have books not in the list but in the same vein, let me know and I may be interested.
