Word's Worth: A Handbook on Writing & Selling Nonfiction

From the back cover: "Terri Brooks has written down just about all of the 'unwritten rules' by which the best journalists do their best work. Almost every page is valuable, including the don'ts of the writing trade. The wonderful quotations from the best of journalism which illustrate this splendid book are alone worth the price of admission." Edwin Diamond, Media Columnist, New York Magazine
