A must have writing tool

I have read the book How to Write by Herb & Jill Meyer. Short and concise, (the whole thing can be read in less than an hour) it provides a framework from which every writer can benefit, from the novice to the professional. The book comes with accolades from such luminaries as William Safire, and has become one of the best-selling writing handbooks. The best part of it is that the authors have found a way to make this book available to anyone, anywhere, at a price that everyone can afford-- just $1.99 for the e-book version. Hell--you spend more than that from a cup of joe from Starbucks (yeah, I know, you spend more on a cup of joe from Starbucks than on most used cars, but you get the idea).

I would highly recommend How to Write--a must have tool for every writer who wants to be good, as well as for every good writer who wants to be great!
