Starting from Scratch - Rita Mae Brown
A different kind of Writer's Manual
KORTE INHOUD
This manual has a much to do with how writers live as with mastering the tools of their trade.
Rita Mae Brown, begins with a very personal account of her own career, from her days as a young poet who had written a novel no publisher wanted to take a chance on, right up to her recent adventures as a Hollywood screenwriter. In a sassy style that makes her outspoken advice as entertaining as it is useful, she provides straight talk about paying the rent while maintaining the energy to write; about dealing with agents, publishers, critics, and the publicity circus; about persuing journalism, academia, or screenwriting; and about rejecting the Hemingway myth of the hard-living, hard-drinking genius.
