A Writer's Guide to Powerfull Paragraphs January 20, 2008 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
A book that looks like a construction kit. Repetition makes it effective, but sometimes annoying. I will keep it on my desk for awhile. I just bought the book on transitions.

Excellent, and nothing quite like it May 26, 2004 22 out of 25 found this review helpful
This book is smart. It is practical and helpful. Besides offering many great ideas on writing coherant paragraphs, it becomes an excellent aid to brainstorming. My only gripe is that there is no bibliography for reference and further study, and no references to recommended paragraphs by other writers. Still, I know of no book quite like this. I'm glad I bought it.
For aspiring authors of all ages & backgrounds February 14, 2003 30 out of 33 found this review helpful
A Writer's Guide To Powerful Paragraphs by Victor C. Pellegrino is a straightforward, easy-to-understand how-to guide to improving the quality of one's writing, one paragraph at a time. Aspiring writers are provided with thirty different but effective ways to organize and write competent paragraphs, including paragraphs focused on chronology, physical or process analysis, classification, enumeration, cause and effect, dialogue, anecdotes, introductions, conclusions, transitions, and a great deal more. Highly recommended and quite "user friendly", A Writer's Guide To Powerful Paragraphs is a superbly organized and presented supplement for aspiring authors of all ages, backgrounds, and experience levels ranging from the high school novice, through community college and university level writing assignments, to professional contract and free-lance authors.
