the Series
In
The Craft of Writing
series, aspiring writers will discover that—like
carpentry, computer programming, or calculus, but often infinitely more
fun—writing is a craft that anyone can learn. Talent helps, but
persistence and following some basic rules of the trade are crucial. From
fiction to journalism, with playwriting, screenwriting, and poetry in between,
readers will learn about the history of the art form as well as getting
practical tips on how to go about writing and selling their work. Each book has
a chapter full of exercises for the aspiring writer. All of the books in this
series are written by professionals in the field.
