<DIV><b>Award-winning author Hilma Wolitzer&rsquo;s expert guide to navigating a life of writing through workshops and writers&rsquo; groups</b></div><DIV><BR>When Hilma Wolitzer finished writing her first short story, she had no idea what to do next. She didn&rsquo;t trust her family members to give honest critiques, and most of her friends&mdash;though they tried to be helpful&mdash;knew little about writing fiction. But her creative life changed when she attended a local writing workshop and discovered the joys of working within an artistic community.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>Since good workshops and conferences are often expensive or difficult to find, Wolitzer provides a guide to building a workshop of your own. With dedication and drive, an informal writer&rsquo;s group can become as useful as any college course&mdash;and much more fun. Wolitzer shows how to build a group, how to make it effective, and how to keep going when a member hits a snag. She also offers solid advice on many aspects of writing and publishing fiction. Writing may be a solitary occupation, but in the company of writers, it never needs to be lonely.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>This ebook features an illustrated biography of Hilma Wolitzer, including rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the author&rsquo;s personal collection.</div>
