How to Write: Advice and Reflections

An essential helpful guide, "How to Write is as useful a study of craft, or the professional conduct of a writing career, as I've seen (Los Angeles Times).

Uniquely fusing practical advice on writing with his own insights into the craft, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Richard Rhodes constructs beautiful prose about the issues would-be writers are most afraid to articulate:

* How do I dare write?

* Where do I begin?

* What do I do with this story I have to tell that fills and breaks my heart?

Rich with personal vignettes about Rhodes's sources of inspiration, How to Write is also a memoir of one of the most original and celebrated writers of our day.

"A remarkable work of self-revelation . . . How generous [Rhodes] is with his mind and his heart. Buy this book, buy it. It's a handbook on how to live." —The Washington Post "The author offers worthy encouragement for fighting psychological barriers, and useful advice on tools and research." —Publishers Weekly
