How NOT to Write a Novel: 200 Mistakes to avoid at All Costs if You Ever Want to Get Published - Brossura
Sinossi
Ci sono molti modi in cui gli autori potenziali sabotano sistematicamente il proprio lavoro. Ma perché lasciarlo alle congetture? Passo dopo passo, How Not to Write a Novel mostra come puoi assicurarti che il tuo manoscritto non superi mai il livello di sciocchezze non pubblicabili; che i tuoi personaggi siano versioni spiacevoli e senza dimensione di te stesso; che la tua trama sia digressiva, noiosa e poco convincente; e che il tuo stile si basi su cliché contorti e malapropismi sesquipedali. In alternativa, puoi usarlo per identificare gli errori più comuni, evitarli e scrivere effettivamente un libro che funzioni. La scrittrice Sandra Newman, finalista del Guardian Award, e il veterano editor Howard Mittelmark hanno distillato 30 anni di insegnamento, editing, scrittura e revisione di narrativa in una guida esilarante e liberatoria che è la lettura ottima per chiunque abbia mai riso di un pezzo di prosa scritto male e per chiunque ne abbia mai scritto uno - e non voglia farlo di nuovo.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. There are many ways prospective authors routinely sabotage their own work. But why leave it to guesswork?

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. There are many ways prospective authors routinely sabotage their own work. But why leave it to guesswork? Misstep by misstep, How Not to Write a Novel shows how you can ensure that your manuscript never rises above the level of unpublishable drivel; that your characters are unpleasant, dimensionless versions of yourself; that your plot is digressive, tedious and unconvincing; and that your style is reliant on mangled cliches and sesquipedalian malapropisms. Alternatively, you can use it to identify the most common mistakes, avoid them and actually write a book that works.Guardian Award shortlisted novelist Sandra Newman and veteran editor Howard Mittelmark have distilled 30 years of teaching, editing, writing and reviewing fiction into a hilarious and liberating guide that is the perfect read for anyone who's ever laughed at a badly written piece of prose and for anyone who's ever penned one - and doesn't want to do it again. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR001280738
