GOOD WRITING: 36 WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR SENTENCES written and read by Neal Allen and Ann Lamott

Neal Allen & Ann Lamott,nine years married, collaborate on both writing and reading their first book, GOOD WRITING:36 WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR SENTENCES. Journalist Neal Allen and novelist/nonfiction writer Ann Lamott show their shared passion for language, demonstrating a remarkable balance as they write about the craft of writing. Allen begins the introduction with a confident, straight-forward view of rules he counts on to make sentences sparkle. Lamott follows with “Ann’s take,” her voice singey and warm while describing her feelings about Allen’s comments, his excellent editing and the evolution of their collaboration. She brings lightness to Allen’s eruditeness with playful inviting content. Thirty-six meaningful rules follow, from using vivid verbs to worshipping talented editors. Lamott sometimes leads listeners on humorous detours, like unexpected takes on her relationship with Neal or disagreeing with his ideas. Especially recommended for writers who want a dynamic new take on classic grammar standards .You can find a link to this book and audio in the purchase button below.
