There are many different ideas about how to write well, but most seem to focus on the grammar and structure of the writing. While important, that is not going to get readers to stay engaged. Writing for Impact is meant to bridge the gap that other books about writing leave. It talks about sentence structure only as far as it connects with getting and keeping a reader’s attention.

The book is well though out and researched. There is plenty of information in it and I saw several things that I want to try for projects that I want to do. Overall, it is a good book. The only issue I had with it is that it seemed to go on and on after the point had been made. I’m all for having proof for what you say, but it had too much for my taste. Other than that, I think it will be helpful for me.

I received a free copy from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
