Add to basketPaperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Some of these poems are based on jobs I've held, some are based on observation and family lore, while others were inspired by something that I read. The occupation of a door-to-door poetry salesman is totally invented. In childhood, I noticed that my father and other adult males established a social bond upon introduction by asking "what do you do?" or "what line of work are you in?" The question seemed to establish a baseline for validation and trust. Its probably been around as along as we've been a species of hunter-gatherers. My father at the time was a revenue agent for the Internal Revenue Service, which had to be a conversation stopper. But it was a career stepping-stone for him, and I'm sure there was a workmanlike routine to it, even with the death threats he received in the North Hollywood office. Before the I.R.S., he flipped burgers at Foster's Freeze and after that he became an operations manager for an auctioneer. Our neighbor Guy Gordon was a firefighter. Our family friend Mr. Borgeson worked in the grocery business (my grandfather had been a produce clerk at Von's). Across the street, Mr. Van Spanckeren was a psychiatrist at the Devereux School and Mr. Halleck was a high school basketball coach. This was in an era when men were teachers: Mr. Eyman was a high school welding teacher and Mr. Van Duynwick taught elementary school! I wrote my first occupational poem while helping out half-days at my father's in-laws printing company, Kimberly Press in Goleta. I was fascinated in 1980 by the linotype operators. I'm sure the high levels of lead exposure would horrify me now. Around that time, I began reading the poems of Philip Levine, who is probably the most lyrical when writing about workers of his native Detroit. This book came about as I prepared to teach a creative writing course, which I titled "Occupational Poetry," culling your resume for new material. I dove into three manuscripts and found these twenty-one poems. I think the best one of the bunch is "Inside" and I am grateful to my long-time friend and collaborator Dwayne Newton for sharing his experience as a San Francisco firefighter. Our work defines us, and poetry has the potential to define the work. I believe it's a fair arrangement. This item is printed on demand.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This guide is written with first time fiction writers in mind. Perhaps you used to write short stories in high school or college and it's been a while. This book might also be helpful as a refresher course for anyone who wants to get back to the basics of writing short fiction. The classic Anton Chekov and O.Henry short story lives on today in authors like Tess Hadley and Wells Tower. My favorite short story writers include Nobel Laureate Alice Munro, the late William Trevor, Richard Ford, Richard Bausch and the late Raymond Carver. Many literary magazines and journals and online literary sites are still looking for short story submissions. But beware, it's a crowded field, and your story is probably competing with hundreds if not thousands of other stories for an editor's attention. In my experience as an MFA graduate student and Associate Editor of The Greensboro Review, I was looking at 800 unsolicited submissions twice a year, and weeding out 760 of them, so the main editor could select the 20 out of the 40 surviving submissions. I'm sure the statistics are about the same. But I write because I love the short story format. I fell in love with John Updike's story "A&P" on a warm, fall day my sophomore year in college, and remarked, I want to write a story just as interesting. I'm not sure I have done that, but I do have two short story collections published, and a third in the works. To help you get started, we will look at the standard short story, as well as flash fiction (defined by word count). We will also look at short story elements like setting, characterization and plot, as well as developing your stories in a critique group environment. Finally, I will provide multiple writing prompts and exercises, in the Appendix, so you can keep using this book indefinitely. Mark it up, highlight it, and tear out sections that you find meaningful. This item is printed on demand.
