OK, here is a learning support in the form of a a Writing Tools Quick List from legendary journalist and journalism teacher, Roy Peter Clark. This material, which is adapted from Mr. Clark’s book Writing Tools: 50 Essential Strategies for Every Writer (New York: Little Brown, 2008), is a simple two-page outline. This is a book that is heavily covered–and generally astutely–in a variety of blogs across the Internet. So if this post is inadequate, simply search the book’s title in your favorite search engine.
If you find typos in this document, I would appreciate a notification. And, as always, if you find this material useful in your practice, I would be grateful to hear what you think of it. I seek your peer review.
