Posted on June 4, 2008

Editor & Publisher reports that column-writing courses at two universities will be using Suzette Martinez Standring's book The Art of Column Writing. Standring is a self-syndicated humor columnist and features writer. She is also a past president of the National Society of Newspaper Columnists.

At least two universities have picked up Suzette Martinez Standring's "The Art of Column Writing" book for use in their opinion/column-writing courses.

That's according to "The Columnist" newsletter from the National Society of Newspaper Columnists, of which Standring is a former president.

The two universities are DePaul in Chicago and the University of Southern Maine.

If you are a blogger studying the art of column writing may also be very useful. You can find more information about the book on the publisher's page and on Amazon.com.
