The WIN Story Writing Program Writing In Narrative The Seven Sentence Story
A Simplified Introduction to
Story Writing
"I’ve been really impressed with Dr. Les Simonson and
Peter Joel’s approach to teaching young people how to write. I
started using the program when I was ten and have since written many short
stories and two novels. Plus, my sisters and I have been publishing
our own magazine. The books are clearly written taking the "whole
concept" approach. Each "part" of a story is taught and then the student
is taught step-by-step how to build a story. They are easy enough so
that even the most reluctant writer is not frustrated, but encouraged!"
- Laura Elizabeth Bunch (At age 19) |

Step 3, the rough draft format, changes the information from an outline format in Step 2 to a somewhat more traditional appearance. Finally, Step 4 combines all the information from Step 3 into a final draft format. Also included in the handbook is a complete "eleven sentence essay" model.

The Win Twin A Simplified English Handbook for Student Writers by Dr. Les Simonson The Win Twin is a simplified English reference handbook in which the answers to student questions about capitalization, punctuation, spelling, and sentence structure can be found easily and applied quickly. Moreover, based on the author's observations of student writers over a period of many years, the information contained in this book is that which students need most frequently. Furthermore, the rules are written in a clear and easy-to-follow format. Also, endless lists of verb tenses, seldom-used terms, and unnecessary explanations of technical concepts are not included in the Win Twin. Such an arrangement allows students to more quickly pinpoint the answers they seek, and therefore, return promptly to writing their papers. Simply stated, the orderly, uncluttered design of this handbook enables students to avoid time-consuming searches in the use of the book, but, instead, spend the majority of their time and attention focused on their writing.
