If nonfiction, look for the Orwell essay on the subject. Look for Strunk
and White Elements of Style.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Improving Writing
I was one of those students who hated to write, still do though as I get older, I am finding that I need to know how to, and to do it well. So as I have some free time.
What are some books either in the collection or not, that I might be able to pick up to improve that writing, and particularly get over the fear of hating what I write and how it won't work, smile.
I like writing, but this is not a good state of affairs.
Thanks. for the book recommendations, and email doesn't count, as there is no deadline, but I want to conquer this monster.
