Good Writing by Neal Allen and Anne Lamott

Two writers show you how to turn a worthy sentence into a memorable one. Starting where The Elements of Style leaves off, Good Writing can improve your book, your essay, your memo, your blog post, your speech, or your script.

Each rule in the book is accompanied by examples and a lively pair of essays by authors Neal Allen and Anne Lamott.

Some rules are fundamental: Use strong verbs. Remove the boring stuff. Twist cliches. Some are more subtle: Draw on all five senses. Give your sentence a finale. Whether you’re a novice writer or a seasoned author, this essential and entertaining guide will revolutionize your approach to crafting sentences.

About the accompanying app

The Good Writing app is a friendly tool that shows you places for potential improvement, sentence by sentence.

 

Unlike typical AI programs, it leaves the rewriting up to you. It’s an interactive reinforcement of the lessons in the book, as well as an online editor that catches weaknesses.
