De: Pauline Piper

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

When Pauline Piper reads in the local paper that her old schoolmate Marjorie has published a book and is going to sign copies of it in the local library, she suddenly remembers that she has always wanted to write one. Despite her admission that she has never been able to express herself very well in words, she enlists the help of her patient husband John, a great reader, unlike herself, and begins to pen her very first novel.In her candid account of the ups and downs of authorship, Pauline steers us ably through the process of writing her first work, from its inception to publication day and beyond. In this self-revealing book – a minor masterpiece in itself – she introduces the reader to the home life of a literary artist remarkable for her determination to succeed against all the odds. Essential reading for all budding authors, this unique chronicle strips away one by one the myths that have surrounded authorship for millennia and gives us the lowdown on how to write and publish a work of fiction in the digital age.PUBLISHER’S NOTE: Prospective readers will be well advised to ‘look inside’ this book before purchasing.LISTED UNDER: Humour – Essays, and Humour - Parodies
