Publisher Description
Author Bill Manville teaches the course "Writing To Get Published" for both Temple University and writers.com. In this book Bill has collected essays and examples that show the working writer how to write in a way that gets your work noticed.
Unlike most books this one is not meant to be read from front cover to back. The reader can pick it up at random and find out tips on writing good dialog, discussions of self-publishing (and whether it works), finding an agent and working through writer's block.
Using a variety of fonts to create a conversational style, the reader will feel they are sitting in a classroom with Bill as he shows (not tells) the best ways to write.
Every writer, or would-be writer, will find something useful in this book.
Customer Reviews
Fun to Read; Easy to Learn
Bill Manville does a terrific job explaining the kind of writing publishers look for. Using practical examples that nicely illustrate his points, it is like sitting in a lecture hall while Bill entertainingly shows us what to do. Highly recommended.
