Writing as Craft and Magic
"FINALLY--a textbook on writing that's not a textbook but a real source of practical advice!"--Terry Clark,University of Central Oklahoma"I'm a huge fan of this book. . . . Stepp's work manages to communicate the more mysterious nature of creativity in writing in a coherent, readily accessible way."--Kim Walsh-Childers,University of Florida"The lessons are straightforward, clear, and well-reasoned. . . . Stepp's categorization of the yin and the yang of journalism as 'craft' and 'magic' is brilliant, hitting just the right note for my students."--John Lenger,Harvard University Extension School
