Written by Michael Legat, who has enjoyed a successful career as publisher, novelist and tutor/lecturer in Creative Writing, these Guides contain both basic information and thought provoking commentary on the steps needed to succeed as a writer. Carefully organised into logical sections, each chapter covers a wide area through which the reader is taken in steps, whilst ensuring those who have had some experience already are equally catered for and can use the Guides as a reference tool. Whether it is 'where to start', characterisation, 'magic ingredients', research, or just simply how to choose a publisher, along with a host of other useful topics and hints, anyone wanting to write whether for a career, or not, will find these Guides invaluable.
