    The best way to become a better writer is by reading good written stuff, as in books, stories, news columns.
    Otherwise, I recommend this book:
    1) The Elements of Style
    by William Strunk, E.B. White

    In other words, the book is about writing correctly, as in formats, grammar, etc. Not about creative writing. But it seems to be what you are looking for in regards to your portfolio, etc.
