Synopsis

Previously titled, Word Magic for Writers, the new and updated Revision Power: The Best Words to Write With is a fascinating book that clearly shows you how to boost the success potential of your writing project, whether an article, speech, story, book, play, or advertising, by elevating and energizing––charging up––the language in which it is written. From this one source, you'll discover how to craft beginnings that hook the reader, middles that compel him or her to stay on the hook, dialogue and descriptions that sizzle and enchant, and endings that leave the reader eager to read more of your work.

Editorial Reviews

"Word Magic [now titled Revision Power: The Best Words to Write With] is a writing book like no other . . . joyful, exuberant, witty, and wise. It manages to be many things at once: a celebration of language, an examination of its mysteries, and an invitation for writers of every ilk to pick up their pens and join the party. Wonderful" --Kate DiCamillo, author of Tale of Despereaux, the Newbery Medal Winner, 2004, and Because of Winn-Dixie, a Newbery Honor Book, 2000

"Written with enthusiasm and laced with an abundance of appropriate examples from both pdult and children's literature, [this book] makes a valuable addition to any writer's home library." --James Cross Giblin, Publisher, editor, and award-winning children’s book author

"This book is full of fascinating writing techniques, many of which were new to me. It will be as indispensable to a word lover as a hardware store is to a tool lover." --Marileta Robinson, Senior Editor of Highlights for Children magazine
