Weaver , Atlanta Journal-Constitution, "Clark is a joyful, brilliant teacher who unlocks the mysteries of literary flow. This book is one to keep near the keyboard." -- Anne Hull, national reporter for the Washington Post, "No matter what you write--a blog, a love letter, the next great American novel-- Writing Tools offers practical advice that is a pleasure to read."-- St. Petersburg Times, "Pull out a favorite novel or short story, and read it with the guidance of...Clark's ideas....Readers will find new worlds in familiar places.
