Description
Whether it's the simplest of prohibitions (don't use too many adjectives) or a cherished writing maxim (show, don't tell), all writers have a rule of thumb that guides their work. In this book, contemporary fiction writers share their favorites. You'll find 50 original essays about the craft from well-known writers including John Barth, Rick Moody, Melanie Rae Thon, Brett Lott, Thisbe Nissen, and more. Helpful advice and unique insights into writers' personal habits make "Rules of Thumb" a rich guide to the craft of writing that any writer or lover of literature must have.
