Kendall Dunkelberg: A Writer's Craft, Gebunden

Klappentext

An introductory creative writing text with a unique, multi-genre approach, this book provides students with an understanding of fiction, poetry, nonfiction and drama writing craft and the elements they have in common. Underscoring the importance of learning good writing habits before committing to one genre, it treats students as professional writers and fosters a comprehensive understanding of creative writing as a discipline, encouraging them to look beyond their genre expectations and spark their own creativity. Now in its long-anticipated second edition, A Writer's Craft has been fully revised and expanded throughout and now includes:

• Greater focus on global literature from a diverse range of writers and considers writing in languages beyond English and non-Western narrative patterns and forms
• Exploration of how genres have developed including in popular fiction, digital writing and using AI as a part of practice
• Expanded sections on drama and invented worlds to look at radio and screenplay-writing and worldbuilding
• Two new appendix sections on strategies for revision and how to read and comment on each writing genre
• A trove of new exercises as well as group exercises in all chapters for workshop use

Bringing back popular features such as the the glossary of literary terms, lists of resources for further study and submission and guidelines for workshops, A Writer's Craft remains the ideal companion to introductory creative writing classes and one of the 'Best Books for Writers' according to Poets and Writers magazine.
