A Gift to Writers Throughout Their Careers
Janet Burroway’s
Writing Fiction has been on my bookshelf for (estimating) 20+ years. I picked up a used copy back when I made my first pass at fiction writing not realizing I’d plucked a diamond from a trash pile. My writing coach,
Rich Marcello, suggested I give it a read.
The title sounded familiar when Rich suggested it. I’d added the book to my collection and hadn’t touched it since I put it on my shelf. This is one of those “When the student is ready, the teacher will be there” things. I wouldn’t have appreciated Writing Fiction 20+ years ago. Rich suggested Writing Fiction about a year ago and I’ve just completed my first read.
I’m a fairly fast reader.
I will be doing second, third and probably through fifth readings (if I live long enough).
There’s that much to learn (for me) in this book.
