So, what happens when you get to page 25 and you fall unexpectedly upon that one single sentence; one that simply does not look right; somehow inhibits the pace of a fast flowing chapter and fails to describe accurately how your character looked or felt? You may of course be one of those fortunate writers who can simply knock the words out, get them down on the page and after a morning of recording a score of 2,000, relax over a light lunch and a large glass of Chardonnay. However, you may be one of those poor unfortunates who strive over every sentence, knowing well what you want to write, but reluctantly unable to find the precise little phrase to exactly describe the moment. Competent writing often requires reference to a Dictionary or a Thesaurus. Good writers carry about with them a recording device of some sort, or that good old fashioned 'pen & paper' to record things they read, see and hear in everyday life. These 'Scribblings' are the sounds, the words and the sights of reality ... the 'real' things that people say to one another and the 'real' way they describe things they have seen and events they have witnessed to their friends and family. With a Dictionary, Thesaurus and Scribblings all being put to good use, the experienced writer will collect over time a 'Golden Book' ...or 'Golden Computer File' ... that contains the condensed results of all the searching and researching for that short, concise 'Golden' sentence. However you approach your writing projects; whether you find writing hard or easy, most of us will be prepared to admit we can do with all the help available. Of course, if you are one of the 'special ones' who simply need no help at all in your well established and highly profitable writing career, then please go no further. For the rest of us, this little gem contains 501 useful phrases and 'Scribblings' organized in such a way that any writer can quickly navigate to a phrase for use in a particular situation; or one that will remind them of another that will fit the bill nicely. This is not an answer to a 'writer's prayer', but it is a great second line reference book of phrases you can use every day in your writing journey. So, what does 501 Writers Useful Phrases contain? The book is divided in to ten sections and each one contains 50 short phrases, quotes, expressions or complete sentences to fit a particular subject heading. The last section contains 51 entries making a total of 501 for this edition.

Best-selling authors and veteran college writing instructors Laurie Kirszner and Stephen Mandell believe that students learn to write best when they use their own writing as a starting point. In Writing First with Readings: Practice in Context, designed for the paragraph to essay course, Kirszner and Mandell take seriously the ideas and expressive abilities of developmental students, as well as their need to learn the rules of writing and grammar. Visual writing prompts that open every chapter get students writing immediately. By moving frequently between their own writing, writing models and instruction, and workbook-style mastery exercises, students get constant reinforcement of the skills they are learning. Thoughtful chapters on college success, research, and critical reading, along with high-interest essays, round out the text, making it the perfect introduction to college writing. Read the preface.
All the help students need to succeed Because so many first-year writing students lack the basic skills the course demands, reading specialist McWhorter gives them steady guidance through the challenges they face in academic work. Successful College Writing offers extensive instruction in active and critical reading, practical advice on study and college survival skills, step-by-step strategies for writing and research, detailed coverage of the nine rhetorical patterns of development, and 61 readings that provide strong rhetorical models, as well as an easy-to-use handbook in the complete edition. McWhorter’s unique visual approach to learning uses graphic organizers, revision flowcharts, and other visual tools to help students analyze texts and write their own essays. Her unique attention to varieties of learning styles also helps empower students, allowing them to identify their strengths and learning preferences. "Successful College Writing is not just about the mastery of academic discourse. It’s a leader in its genre because it helps students acquire valuable strategies for creating effective texts that are associated with expert professional communication in general." — Lilia Savova, Indiana University of Pennsylvania
In a book that itself exemplifies the dialogic scholarship it proposes, Kay Halasek reconceives composition studies from a Bakhtinian perspective, focusing on both the discipline's theoretical assumptions and its pedagogies. Framing her discussions at every level of the discipline--theoretical, historical, pedagogical--Halasek provides an overview of portions of the Bakhtinian canon relevant to composition studies, explores the implications of Mikhail Bakhtin's work in the teaching of writing and for current debates about the role of theory in composition studies, and provides a model of scholarship that strives to maintain dialogic balance between practice and theory, between composition studies and Bakhtinian thought. Halasek's study ranges broadly across the field of composition, painting in wide strokes a new picture of the discipline, focusing on the finer details of the rhetorical situation, and teasing out the implications of Bakhtinian thought for classroom practice by examining the nature of critical reading and writing, the efficacy and ethics of academic discourse, student resistance, and critical and conflict pedagogy. The book ends by setting out a pedagogy of possibility, what Halasek terms elsewhere a "post-critical pedagogy" that redefines and redirects current discussions of home versus academic literacies and discourses.
