About this title

Synopsis

Offers advice on setting up an office, keeping a journal, taking writing courses, working as a freelance reviewer or journalist, and preparing manuscripts for submission

Reviews

This sensible volume urges a mellow, reflective attitude for senior citizens thinking of becoming writers. Oldsters who've postponed, neglected, or only dreamed of writing for publication are prodded to get busy, using their ample time to mine stored experiences and insights. Reading, taking a course, or otherwise brushing up on writing techniques is suggested. Nostalgia pieces; travel writing; book, theater, or movie reviewing; ghosting; and collaboration with notable persons, along with fiction, poetry, books, articles and other forms, are examined. Readers who liked Knott's Writing for the Joy of It ( LJ 4/15/83) will welcome this latest book. William A. Donovan, Chicago P.L.
