Not a dictionary, more a MANUAL

Henry's Fiction Dictionary really is a manual. While a dictionary is short, concise and without more than superficial influence on my possibilities, this MANUAL is a teacher who explains everything I need as a LEARNER of writing skills. I do like this book very much as I like Laurie Henry's Novelist's handbook.
