Customer Reviews

Kate Grenville is cool!

This is a must have guide for anyone wanting to write. Shows us how to let it flow. Lots of exercises for budding authors within.

A great investment for writers

This book is a useful resource; it provides exercises that get one's creativity flowing, as well as some very practical and thoughtful advice on how to polish works in progress. Better still, it doesn't just stick to conventional formulas when discussing the elements of a short story or novel; Grenville provides examples from both traditional and experimental approaches to storytelling.
