Idézet:An essential guide for writers of fiction, poetry, life writing and drama, A Creative Writing Handbook offers expert advice on structuring compelling narratives and cultivating distinctive voices.
Writing, research and editing activities combine with rich and varied examples to help develop the skills and techniques a writer needs. This hands-on approach examines scriptwriting for different media and considers how skills and techniques from one form of writing might usefully cross over to others: how does a short story become a film? How are techniques from scriptwriting employed in novels? And how might poets and life writers fruitfully engage with the strategies of dramatists and writers of prose fiction?
This second edition has been extensively updated with content that reflects current developments in forms such as life writing, flash fiction and audio drama. It includes examples of work by a wide range of writers using a variety of styles and approaches, showcasing the diversity of contemporary writing.
For individual writers, writing groups and courses, and writers' workshops, A Creative Writing Handbook provides
creative techniques for developing short stories and novels
detailed introductions to stage, audio and film writing
strategies for incorporating dramatic techniques in poetry
thought-provoking approaches to life writing
practical guidance on layout and adaptation techniques for different media
exciting activities to help writers discover new approaches, strengthen their writing, and develop their own practice and voice.
