This is an excellent book in which even an experienced writer like me found some useful hints and tips. Any beginning writer should find the example press releases especially helpful.

A text book that is humorous and informative - Who knew it was possible? It just goes to show you can teach an old dog new tricks: I am using the 6 Ws tip with a post-it note on my laptop as you recommend. I have also sent the link to my contacts.

Very handy tips for someone like me who is not a professional copywriter but still has to write text to promote technical products. The strong message of this Upside Down Guide is "start with the end". Pleasant to read, full with British humour (did not understand all of it....). Best sentence: "Just like a bikini, your story should be brief enough to excite interest but cover all the essential points"!

Wow - I've just read the extract from 'The upside down guide to writing for the Press' - it's almost as if you've been able to read my mind (and the minds of most other trade editors no doubt)! You describe the process of selecting material for publication perfectly, and your guide to writing a press release is spot on. Getting this type of information to the relevant people would really help the cause, and make the life of an editor a happier one!!
