Writer's Friend a true friend indeed

A legend in his own time at The University of Texas, Martin "Red" Gibson transfers his magical teaching ability into an effective and easy-to-read book with "The Writer's Friend." Written in a breezy, almost conversational style, TWF is design ed to teach you copy editing painlessly. Through his subtle Texas humor, brilliantly clear examples and common-sense approach, you will begin to think about what you and others write. TWF helped me not only as a journalist, but as a writer in day-to-day life. I know the people who read what I write appreciate the book, and I know that I sure do appreciate Dr. Gibson -- and miss him. Get this book if you want to write well.
