For anyone who desires to become an author, two classic books share the necessary elements of creative writing and the habits and processes to make your writing successful. Professor William Strunk published Elements of Style at the end of the First World War. This book inspires us to write well while immersing readers in the atmosphere of a gentlemen’s writing circle where we can almost smell the chalk and tweed. The professor encourages the writer to write well, if for no other reason than to escape his stern reprimand. If You Want to Write is Brenda Ueland’s classic exploration of the essence and art of literary creativity. She believed that only by expressing one’s creative spirit can we become "generous, joyful, lively, bold and sympathetic". William Strunk: The Elements of Style Brenda Ueland: If You Want to Write

Elements of Style, the Pulitzer Prize—winning playwright Wendy Wasserstein’s first novel, is a scathing comedy about New York's high society facing the post—9/11 world. Francesca Weissman, an Upper East Side pediatrician rated number one by Manhattan magazine, floats on the fringes of the upper strata of privilege and aspiration. Through her bemused eyes we meet the thoroughbred socialite Samantha Acton; relentless social climber Judy Tremont; Barry Santorini, an Oscar-winning moviemaker accustomed to having his way; his supermarket heiress wife, Clarice; and more, tossed together in a frothy stew of outrageous conspicuous consumption and adulterous affairs that play out on Page Six. But when Wasserstein’s madcap tour of the social lives and mores of twenty-first-century Manhattan veers into tragedy, we finally see the true cost of her characters’ choices, and the beating heart of this dazzling novel.
