padAP GUIDE TO SPORTS WRITING

Steve Wilstein, the author of "The AP Sports Writing Handbook," has won 17 sports writing awards since 1988, including the 1999 AP Sports Editors award for breaking the news of Mark McGwire's use of a muscle supplement, considered the "story of the year." A veteran AP sports writer and columnist, Wilstein continues to cover major sports events around the globe.

With fascinating and instructive anecdotes -- and writing examples from some of the best in the business -- Wilstein has provided required reading for aspiring and working sports reporters. The book deals with the techniques of sports writing as well as how to get started as a reporter; the differences in local, national and feature writing; the influence of the Internet; and where the business is headed in the next decade.
