Praise for the first edition: 'There are books that are badly
written, books that are well written and books that you wish you'd
written. This is one of the latter. Hicks and his co-writers
produce a book that is a joy to read and is packed full of helpful
advice.' - Chris Frost, Journalist 'You don't have to be a
journalist to read this book. Anyone with an interest in improving
their writing skills and developing a sense of good style will find
it useful Wynford Hicks takes a no-nonsense, sleeves rolled up
approach to writing which has no time for preciousness.' - Roy

market for a no-nonsense book for trainees written by trainers who
genuinely understand the industry and who have moved with the
times.' - Sharon Wheeler, Journalism Studies Writing for
