DRG, 2007
Helpful hints and details
Shhh, this is being put up for my mom for Christmas. If I can give it up, that is.
I am a crafter, but not much of a paper crafter. My mom is crafty with paper for her Sunday School kids, grandkids and just for fun....and she is a huge Carol Duvall fan.
This arrived today slightly damaged (thanks a lot Amazon) so I was thumbing through it to be sure it was only the cover and corners that ...

The writer's Bilble
If you need a writer's guide , buy this one, no matter what you write or for which public. It's full of usefull and simple examples and exercises. The language is clear and humoristic. This book contens all you need to know about crafting unforgettable stories. I use it to rewrite my crime story manuscript and it makes rewriting something close to fun. And that is something unvaluable as you may ...

Crafting Expository Argument: Practical Approaches to the Writing Process for Students and Teachers Fourth ...1 review
Michael Degen
Telemachos Publishing, 2002
Grammar in Context
Constance Weaver presents the theory of teaching grammar in the context of writing, yet as a high school teacher it was nearly impossible to find a realistic example of this theory. Degen unexpectedly demonstrates not only how he incorporates the grammar into the context of writing, but also how to address revision, problems that may occur during instruction, and model examples. The book is a ...

Claudia H. Johnson
Focal Press, 2005
The best Screenwriting book out there
Very detailed book on the many aspects of screenwriting. Johnson goes through not just the contruction and process of screenplays, but how to approach and think about writing. Althought the tile is specific to short screenplays, this book has the fundementals of writing freature lengths as well. The best!

A Writer's Workshop: Crafting Paragraphs, Building1 review
Bob Brannan
Primis Custom Publishing, 2003
Great "How-To" Teach Writing (and Revision!) Book
I have been teaching for 10 years and recently purchased this book. Each chapter focuses on a different type of writing or essay; journal entries lead students' reflections for revision. Unlike other books I have purchased, this book focuses more on the writing process and step-by-step ideas for each part of the process. It will be a book you return to again and again.

Jordan Rosenfeld
Writers Digest Books, 2007
A Gem for New and Veteran Writers
I have a lot of writing reference books in my library--A LOT of writing reference books--and I'm rather picky when it comes to adding another one. But after reading MAKE A SCENE, I happily made room in the easy-access "favorites" section of my bookshelf. This is one of those rare a how-to books that not only makes me feel sharper as an editor, it inspires me to dive back into the creative phase ...

Crafting With Kids: Creative Fun for Children Aged 3-101 review
Catherine Woram
Ryland Peters & Small, 2006
Great Crafts that have a purpose
I was looking for a craft book that would help with making something I didn't just want to trash. The crafts in this book are purposeful and nothing like something you make at the library. They are thoughtful and really are useful for the most part. My daughter loves to collect rocks, and painting them was a great idea.

Creative Nonfiction: Researching and Crafting Stories of Real Life 6 reviews
Philip Gerard
Waveland Pr Inc, 2004
Exceptional tool for writers
Creative Nonfiction is an invaluable resource for writers of reality-based material. I am a television producer and college film professor who specializes in documentary production. While this book is crafted for a print writer, it is by far the best resource I have found for a complete review of the nonfiction creative process. No film or television how-tos come close to the depth and insight ...

A complete heritage album resource.
There are already two very good reviews of this book here at Amazon, but I wanted to stress to potential buyers that this is a COMPLETE heritage album resource. This is NOT the kind of book you usually find on this topic -- not only just a book of layouts. If you've been debating about starting scrapbooking as a hobby and are looking at taking it up to document all your old attic finds, this is ...
