## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An insightful book, told from the perspective of writers, editors, and publishers.
  

*by P***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 13, 2013*

Amusing, heartbreaking, thoughtful--this book shows the many facets of writers through their commentary about writing. It is organized into common sense categories, and has words of wisdom for the aspiring writer from such famous authors as Hemmingway and Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens), as well as lesser known gems from editors and others involved in the writing trade. Well worth reading for the entertaining turns of phrase used, even if you haven't thought of writing. You will get a laugh and some good insights into writing past and present.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    This book by Winokur is great for anyone aspiring to write commercially
