The essays in this book were originally written for first-year college students, but these essays are appropriate for anyone who hopes to become a better writer. This book breaks writing down into much smaller pieces and describes each piece in a friendly, narrative style. The book includes over 100 short essays – approximately 500-700 words each – and the chapters cover the following subjects: The Ten Commandments of Writing, Punctuation and Grammar, Types of Writing, The Writing Process, The Key Parts of an Essay, The Research Paper, Proofreading, Plagiarism, Literary Techniques, Specific Writing Tasks, Authors on Writing, and The Reading-Writing Connection.
