"Part-time Writer" guides the reader through all aspects of writing
- from the embryonic stages of researching and planning, to the
hard slog of the writing and editing, through to the presentation
of the manuscript, and finally, approaching agents and publishers.
At each stage, the author explains how she did it - and how the
reader can do it too. How can I write engaging dialogue? What can I
do to make my characters 'live' on the page? Must I always 'show
and not tell'? How can I transform a hobby into a book? When is the
right time to show my work to others? How should I present my
manuscript? Do I need an agent? Where can I publish my work? Should
I self-publish? Where can I find the time to write a novel? In her
inimitable style, Marjorie Quarton merges literary memoir,
anecdotes and straight talking to provide invaluable insights into
the realities of being a writer, while offering indispensable
advice on the trade, making this book a must-have for any aspiring
author.
