You'll never be lost for words. May 5, 2008 This book is a great help for any writing project. I would have liked it better, however, if there were more samples of personal writing projects.
Office essential! January 4, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is an absolute must for any office professional. I purchased the book for a co-worker as a gift, then wore-out my welcome borrowing it and had to get a copy for myself! I've used it for writing Christmas cards to clients, letters of recommendations for employees, writing notes of condolences for clients and co-workers, requesting reviews from magazine editors, and in many more situations. I can't think of a book I have in my library that I use more. This is a great gift for any office professional, especially those just starting their career!
Great Book September 18, 2007 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a pretty good book. It focuses on writings though. If you would like to have a book that speaks on communication in general, then I would suggest "How to Use Power Phrases" by Meryl Runion or optimally both books. The examples in "Power Phrases" are verbal examples, but can be used in both situations. "How to say it" should be titled "How to put it in writing"
Great Graduation Gift June 22, 2007 I believe the ability to write a thoughtful and effective letter is an important skill to have, and one that many younger people today are not developing due to all of our electronic communications. I got this for a graduation gift and it has truly helped me become better at writing good letters for my new "adult" life, from thank you letters to job correspondence and more.
