Stein on Writing provides immediately useful advice for writers of fiction and nonfiction, whether newcomers or accomplished professionals. As Sol Stein, renowned editor, author, and instructor, explains, "This is not a book of theory. It is a book of usable solutions—how to fix writing that is flawed, how to improve writing that is good, how to create interesting writing in the first place."

With examples from his bestsellers as well as aspiring students' writing, Stein offers detailed sections on characterization, dialogue, pacing, flashbacks, liposuctioning flab, the "triage" method of revision, using the techniques of fiction to enliven nonfiction, and more. This is an essential guide for writers at every level.

“Stein on Writing is the best book on writing that I have read…The tips, shortcuts, and plentiful examples of good writing versus bad cannot fail to help every writer, no matter at what stage he finds himself.”

(Barnaby Conrad, New York Times bestselling author)

“Offers a banquet of savvy advice...Stein aims not to help his readers wrestle with writerly anguish; rather, he gets on the page, citing examples from writers famous and fledgling, closely analyzing first sentences, creation of character, plotting, and dialogue.”

(Publishers Weekly)

“This book can jump-start anyone’s creativity. Highly recommended for all writing collections.”

(Library Journal)

“[Stein] went over my manuscript with an ifallible eye for the soft spots in my prose, giving me one of the best editorial readinds I've ever had.”

(Lionel Trilling, author of The Middle of the Journey)

“A practical guide for writers by a master editor who has worked with such figures as Dylan Thomas, James Baldwin, and Jack Higgins covers character development, speeding up the pace, applying the Actors Studio Method, and creating suspense and tension.”

This book helps demystify the art of writing. For the first time I really understand many of the tricks of the writers craft. After finishing the book I understand two things, how to write well and why learning to write well may take the rest of my life. An essentail read for aspiring writers.

There is much to digest so chew slowly and do not choke. On a par with listening to good music; enjoyable, entertaining, thought provoking and insightful. Soon. The time is soon.

Working on it.
