Summary: 4 Stars
"Your Name in Print" is about how you can improve your writing. Throughout the book you are taught how to find subjects to write about, tactics you can use to help yourself write better, and examples on how hard work and determination can help your writing. You also learn in this book about how you can get your work known to the public. This book will help teach you how to write anything from school reports to books.
Opinion: "Your Name in Print" was an interesting book. The most interesting parts of the book for me was when you would learn about how some writer started out. The book did have useful tips on how to help improve your writing, and good ways on how to come up with ideas to write about. It also taught you a lot about how to start out in writing, and move up to doing bigger things. The book did having some parts in it where I was daydreaming while I read it, but other than those few parts I was really into what I was reading.
