Make Your Words Work by Gary ProvostMake Your Words Work

(First published in 1990 by Writer's Digest Books)

"Every word, every sentence, every paragraph must be doing some work or it should be fired." —Gary Provost

You know in an instant when the writing sings. The words caress, amuse or rivet. Artful phrasing sharpens the images. The pacing moves you along, event by gripping event.

Too few writers so control the page.

But you can be one of the few. Learn what this book has to teach and:

  • refine your style
  • bring music to your words
  • seize the reins of pace
  • make people of your characters
  • determine viewpoint
  • tighten tension
  • develop credibility
  • and much more.
