Opis

An insightful little handbook for writers who are true students of the craft of fiction. Author Jeffrey Dean Doty shares simple and direct thoughts on everything from the art of description to mythic structure. Doty brings to each page his experience as a journalist, editor, published author, and over fifteen years as a writing mentor and teacher of writers' workshops. Learn about the all-important Dream State, and how to evoke it in your readers. Discover the importance of using all five senses in your writing. Gain an understanding of making each story uniquely your own. More than just lessons on technique, WORKING THE WORDS is a celebration of the writing life, the people who persevere in the face of rejection, and the effort that goes into producing a truly great piece of literature.
