Samenvatting:

Written for busy people like you who have always wanted to write a book, Writing Hurts Like Hell: How to Write a Novel When You Don't Have Time to Write a Short Story, guides you step-by-stop through the process of writing a novel from conceiving an idea, to developing the idea into a well-plotted story, and then revising your finished first draft into a manuscript that's ready to send to an agent or publisher.

This workshop-in-a-book breaks the entire process into manageable tasks that will fit into even the busiest of schedules and allow you to set up a writing regimen that suits your needs.

The concepts and approaches in this book were developed over a period of ten years of teaching writing workshops through college extension programs and literary workshops, including the Maritime Writers' Workshop. As a result, this book is full of activities that will have you opening doors to your creativity within hours.

Biff Mitchell is the author of five published novels and numerous short stories and poems. His background in adult education and passion for writing makes for lively reading and a realistic, hands-on approach to finally writing that novel you've been dreaming about for years.
