内容简介
Legendary writing coach Jack Hart spent twenty-six years at the Oregonian and has taught students and professional s of all stripes, including bloggers, podcasters, and more than one Pulitzer Prize winner. Good writing, he says, has the same basic attributes regardless of genre or medium. Wordcraft share s Hart’s techniques for achieving those attributes in one of the most broadly useful writing books ever written.
Originally published in 2006 as A Writer’s Coach, the book has been updated to address the needs of writers well beyond print journa list s. Hart breaks the writing pro cess into a series of manageable steps, from idea to polishing.
