UrbanSue Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Is there a WWS "textbook" comparable to the the hardback volume sold for WWE which contains an introduction and sample weeks for each level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alte Veste Academy Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 No, and it is a terrible pity. I would kill for a similar product, because I strongly believe in writing across the curriculum. I also think reluctant writers are less likely to be reluctant if they write across the curriculum. There is only what you can glean from the few pages devoted to WWS in the WWE hardcover, WTM, and her writing talks (which are quite good). Oh, WAIT! I just realized that she put out a S&S! Let me see if I can find the link. I just saw my print-out of the hard copy the other day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrysalis Academy Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I agree, "The Complete Writer for the Logic Stage" would be so incredibly useful!!! There is some of that in the WWS TM, but not a fully-developed articulation of what the program is setting out to teach, and the steps it will take to get there, the way The Complete Writer does for the grammar stage.

RootAnn Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 It might be something that she does *after* finishing the WWS series. (Is there a crosses-fingers smilie?) :drool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UrbanSue Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 Thanks for the link anyway. Maybe I'll take advantage of the sale and get some writing lectures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penelope Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I really hope there is one, some day. But Im sure it would take longer to write than the Strong Fundamentals book, and I'm more anxious to see all the levels of WWS come out. I thought I saw SWB post that she wasn't going to do an overview book, but changed her mind since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Wife Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Maybe you could request your library purchase a copy of WWS1 and the IG? That way you'd be able to read through the program and get a sense of how to work on WWS-type skill using your own source material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollyhock Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I'm pretty sure she said she was going to write one, but who knows what the timeline on it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
