5.0 out of 5 stars
Refreshingly different from typical American writing book,
By Milli Thornton "author of Fear of Writing: fo... (Youngstown, Ohio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Making Stories: How Eleven Australian Novels Were Written (Mass Market Paperback)
Shows the fascinating process ten Australian novelists went through with their manuscripts. If you like visuals, you'll love this book. From the more traditional style of rewrite (crossings-outs in a typed draft) all the way to the exotic--such as the drawings of spider webs, naked ladies, and dress patterns used by author Finola Moorhead for REMEMBER THE TARANTELLA.
The co-authors (Sue Woolfe is the other author, albeit not listed here by Amazon) also bare their souls with samples from their own manuscripts. The visuals are enriched by wonderful interviews plus tidbits such as character sketches rendered by the ten featured authors. This book will remind you once again that there's no "right" way to write--except your own way. |
