I'm not sure if you're still in school this year (as I haven't chatted with you for a while) but I always found that a good Prof at school would always be of help when writing papers and such. Sometimes I found the criticism harsh, but by all means necessary in some cases. I always thought of myself as someone who could write well ( I even found myself editing some papers for my friends) but it sure was a rude awakening in university, so sometimes criticism is a good thing.
Sorry to disagree, dottie, but I found my profs to be the worst - outdated and usually very self-gratifying - best reference was a 'Dictionairy of Style"

True, Scooby, Logan's writing is very fine. I get compliments on my writing style, too. But I do have a desire towards excellence, and I intend to push my art as far as it will go. Not for the acclaim of others, but towards a personal goal of excellence.
I was curious about Euph's reccomendation, so I did a search for the title, "Write To The Point."
There's BUNCHES of books with that same title! A bit more investigation, however, disclosed that Bill Stott is the author of the book you (might) want.
