A brief introduction of each technique is followed by examples and prompts. Ideal for the creative writing classroom or the solo writer, this handbook develops and deepens your writing practice.In writing, practice doesn't make you perfect, but it's the only way to get better. I don't think I'm the most talented person on the planet, but I work really hard, you know? And part of what's really hard is I work really hard at getting better at stuff, you know? David Foster Wallace You write by sitting down and writing. There's no particular time or place-you suit yourself, your nature.
