Books about writing content?

[Strider1973]

Hi - I've decided that the next book I am going to read will not be about poker strategy, but about the subject "how to write great articles".

Do you have any suggestions which 1-2 books I should buy?

Not exactly a book but I keep one of Randy Ray's posts in my bookmarks for when the urge to improve my writing strikes - this links to 50 blogs, some gems too.

50 Useful Blogs for Writers

Also keep Copyblogger on my weekly reading list.

I think On Writing Well by William Zinsser gives a really good introduction on how to, ehm, write well.

This is a really good introduction to copywriting: Copywriting 101: An Introduction to Effective Copy | Copyblogger

Try digging around on www.pokerseo.org. There are a lot of really good advice on writing on that site, even though it usually isn't the main topic of the posts.

Looking into adult learning and learning/teaching styles would probably be useful too (I picked up some good tricks).
