STORYTELLER: A Handbook of Helpful Hints and Tall Tales from the Writing Life

About this book

During his lengthy writing career, Carlton Stowers has had his highs and lows, all the while learning more and more about his chosen craft. In STORYTELLER, he chronicles the pitfalls and prat falls, suggests how best to pitch a book or article to editors, and shares the do's and don'ts of research and interviewing. While spinning a humorous story or two along the way, the author touches on the entire spectrum of writing for a living, producing what iconic university journalism professor David McHam calls "the best book on writing I've ever read."
