Media Reviews
'If you are so far unpublished and are seeking to get established, then this book will take you several steps forward.' Writers News '...plenty of advice for the newer writer and much to jog the memory of the more experienced.' Writer's Bulletin 'Throughout there are useful checklists summarising the chapters, followed by assignments, making it a helpful book for anyone at the early stages of writing.' Buzzwords 'Everything the beginner needs to know, but it's just as helpful for experienced writers, who will pick all sorts of useful hints from it.' Alison Chisholm, BBC Radio
