Produktbeschreibung

After writing more than one hundred books, it still amazes me that I have been lucky enough to spend most of my life doing what I truly love: writing.

What makes a writer? The desire to tell a story, a love of language, an eye for detail, practice, practice, practice. How well should you know your characters? Do you need to outline before you write? How important is length?

Includes:

• Examples from his writing and reading experiences
• Walter's six-box and four-box outlines for writing fiction and nonfiction
