Review of book, Hooked by Les Edgerton
I read Hooked - write fiction that grabs readers at page one and never lets them go by Les Edgerton this year. This is a book about beginnings, a book for writers that they may improve their first sentence, and initial chapters. I loved the book ... it was written in an easy style with lots of examples, and ideas, in an effortless banter that keeps you reading. Although, it seems to be like a textbook in some ways, it is never boring. I will be referencing this book for a long time.
You can find the book at Amazon.ca and Amazon.com.

Just wanted to thank you for the shout-out of Hooked, Debbie. And, for the blurb for my book proposal. I'm very much in your debt. I'm including your blog in my websites on my own blog. Thanks again!

ReplyDeleteIt's always good hearing about books that help writers. Will investigate - cheers!
Just look for the little turquoise book with the gold fish about to be hooked. I love the cover ... so cool.
