5 out of 5 stars The Writer's Toolbag   August 16, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

"If you put crap in, you'll pull crap out".

A writer's toolbag contains bits of information collected from various sources. While writing, he reaches into the toolbag to extract a tool. If during the collection process he gathered good and useful tools, he will have a resource that will propel his work. If he has collected crap, he'll pull out crap and his work will reflect that.

The Writer contains guidence useful to writers in any and all genres. The work of a writer who collects his tools from sources such as The Writer will be graceful with strong prose. It has a better chance of a favorable response than a writer who collects his tools from less reputable magazines and believe me, they're out there. Of course I won't name them here, but writers who know will recognize them.

Better than Writer's Digest? No. It has advantages of its own just like Writer's Digest does. The main advantage it that it is a monthly publication and not bi-monthly like WD. While WD may be targeted toward the more advanced writer, The Writer has beneficial articles for writers of any level including advanced. But readers of The Writer do not need an advanced degree to find it useful.

Bravo to The Writer. One of the most used tools in my toolbag.

It is disgusting that this magazine has neglected overseas writers. Writer's Digest and other top flight Writer's mags do it quite easily so why can't The Writer?!


5 out of 5 stars Writer's Tools   July 16, 2008

Great magazine for a writer's tool box. There is motivation, advice, and marketing listings for a variety of writers in each magazine. I have recommended this to fellow writers and shared articles with friends encouraging them to write down thier stories or expand thier talents to print for profit. This has been educational for my young son as I share articles of interest to this history buff and science fiction writing elementary school child.
