A Writer’s Resource helps writers identify the fundamental elements of any writing situation, and teaches innovative, transferable strategies that build confidence for composing across various genres, media, and the academic curriculum. With numerous examples from a rich cross-section of disciplines, A Writer’s Resource demonstrates that nearly every field of study and potential career path depends on written communication. 

A Writer’s Resource’s accompanying Connect digital platform (with 4-year access) offers instructors more options for instruction, assessment, and reporting.   Writing Assignment (available in Connect) has been enhanced with easy-to-use Peer Review functionality, making it convenient to assign and assess peer review performance.  A Writer’s Resource 7e aligns fully with the 9th edition of the MLA Handbook and the 7th edition of the APA Manual.
