Portable, accessible, affordable, and packed with engaging examples, Crafting Stories is a friendly introduction to writing short fiction. It encourages students to read fiction actively, with a writer’s eye, and to approach their own work in a spirit of adventure without sacrificing rigor. It makes the elements of story-craft more engaging to student readers, so that beginning writers can see greater progress reflected in their short stories over the course of a single semester.
