Writing is a craft, an art, a gift, a revelation; it is also often challenging and lonely work. And that is just the start - whether your aim is to get through the obstacle course of publishing, or to develop a talent into a sustaining occupation. This guide offers ideas and practical help towards all kinds of goals - whether you are writing fiction or fact, for work or pleasure, for print, performance or the screen, for personal development or a wide readership. Topics include: developing tools and skills; gathering and researching material; drafting, revising, editing; formal and legal considerations; understanding your readership; constructive feedback, writing groups, tuition; finding publishing outlets; commercial publishing, self-publishing; and marketing, reviews and publicity. During nearly a decade with the NSW Writers Centre, Irina Dunn has advised on every conceivable question an aspiring writer faces. Irina has also been an English tutor, consultant editor and translator and has drawn on this wealth of experience, and complemented it with expertise from practitioners and other writer's centres, to prepare this guide for all those who want to write, especially in Australia and New Zealand.
