Description
Many people wanting to write don't know where to begin; how to explore that subterranean cave which is the imagination; or with which tools to discover its contours and its depths.
Dear Writer is a wonderfully illuminating collection of letters to an aspiring author. It speaks with intimate authority about the nature of fiction - the role of the imagination, the techniques of plot and point of view, the importance of beginnings and endings, the traps of language tired by over-use, and how to overcome writer's block.
