Writing A Novel Av Richard Skinner

<p>A novel is a relationship, a place outside of time where both reader and writer are challenged and validated, stretched and rewarded. <br><br>Richard Skinner believes it is your duty as a novelist to bring your whole self to the page; to find your story, not force it; to meet your reader in a spirit of openness. <br><br>In <i>Writing a Novel </i>he offers up frameworks, strategies and stimuli to help you meet that duty, drawingon his deep experience as one of the UK’s leading creative writing teachers. He covers the essentials – narrators, character, setting – with charm and rigour. But <i>Writing a Novel</i> is not a set of instructions: it is a way of thinking, a conversation, a relationship in itself.</p>
