STEERING THE CRAFT

Steering the Craft is Ursula K. Le Guins carrier bag of the tools of a writers craft: how and why to write. From the sound of language to tenses to point of view, Le Guin offers a comprehensive and generous guide to the fundamental components of narrative, illustrating her incisive analysis with examples from some of her favourite writers. Revised and updated for the twenty-first century, this handbook includes exercises that the writer can do alone or in a group.
