Writing is Easier Than You Think

Writing Is Easier Than You Think, 2e, is designed for college undergraduate students in either a Comp I or Comp II course.  With chapters providing how-to instructions, this book emphasizes that effective writing is constructed over time, through deliberate, often repeated, actions.  Yet, more importantly, the book shows students what effective writing looks like.  Each chapter contains a dozen (or more) model essays that allow students to see what achievement and excellence look like.  With 175 models in total, Writing Is Easier Than You Think, 2e, provides instructors wide latitude when customizing a curriculum.  Perhaps most important of all, the book provides students with encouragement.  The underlying ethos of the book: “What one student can do, another can do.”
