about writing! I am halfway through "Self editing for Fiction Writers" . What a fabulous book. I recommend it to every new writer. I know there's probably a thread about it hear somewhere, but I just love it.

Although, I must admit, that some of the advice I already knew, because Uncle Jim has given it already.

But a really great resource.

I'll second that and add Stephen Kings "On Writing" to the list. Excellent resource.

That book is on my ever expanding 'to get' list. I began reading through it in the bookstore one day months ago and felt I found a small gold mine. Woohoo!

Yep. This is one of those MUSTHAVE resources, IMHO. A writer who really wants to learn their craft can learn so much from this one book. :)

Christine, I'm glad you're finding it helpful!

Incredibly helpful. I can't wait to finish it, then I'll attack my new ms without mercy!
