Elements of Writing Fiction - Beginnings, Middles & Ends (Elements of Fiction Writing) from Writers Digest Books Price: $10.19 Customer Review: I have always been told I'm a "good writer" and I have always wanted to "write" (specifically, make up stories and put them on paper.

10.		Elements of Writing Fiction - Characters & Viewpoint (Elements of Fiction Writing) from Writers Digest Books Price: $10.19 Customer Review: One of the best books on writing I've found so far.
