The only book you need to start writing
This book has helped me gain confidence in myself as a writer. It talks about what writing should look like whether you are a sportswriter or travel writer. It keeps its focus on nonfiction writing but you get many lessons on fiction writing as well. MUST READ if you are a writer or editor or just hoping to be a writer some day.

Well of Knowlegde
Such a wonderful and exquisite learning tool. Just a mere reading taught me a lot. I, without wasting a single second thought of gifting it to the most deserving. My happiness knew no bounds when I saw that person reading it analytically and grasping the message on the go.I strongly believe that this budding litterateur shall definitely rise up with a creative work jaded and jazzed up with jewels of words and garlands of phrases. I recommend it for all and sundry. If "On Writing Well" is read along with "The Elements of Style", the combination can help one assimilate and accumulate wealth of knowledge about the nuances of the literature world. Read and relish the jelly-jam churned out like fresh butter with honey drops falling on it.

Good Content.Poor Quality.
The book content is good as expected but the paper quality is too cheap. It cost 600 rupees for a mere 300 pages, atleast print it in good quality paper. (3 star for its content)

A must read book if you want to improve your writing!
Excellent book to learn to improve any kind of writing style - fiction, non fiction, day to day communication. William explains the core principles in a simple yet effective manner. At times I did feel like some theories/examples were being repeated so some skimming will be needed. But once you find those gems of wisdom, it is absolutely worth the read. A classic on the art of writing well!

Very well explained
Writing a book, on writing well, must be an enormously difficult task. It is more likely to be brutally judged. But Willam as done a beautiful job on this book and has demnstrated his narrative skills in the best way possible. This book has given me new insights on writing and i hope i will be able to retain these learning for a long time

This classic book has been my main guide to writing in all my years as a journalist. It is not only full of excellent advice on what good writing is, but it is also an entertaining read - not a dry, dusty reference book. It has been revised many times over the years and is still THE one to have on your shelf (or your Kindle reader). I have give it as a present to young writers many times.

This was recommended to me on X when I asked how I can become a better copywriter. I was not disappointed. Great ideas about how to write, why to write and the technicalities in the middle. If you are interested in writing commercially or otherwise, it's a great primer on writing with no assumed knowledge. I admit he is a bit left leaning politically however it's not strong and easily dismissed. Good read
