Characters refusing to talk? Plot plodding along? Where do good ideas come from anyway? In this wonderfully practical volume, two-time Edgar Award-winning novelist Lawrence Block takes an inside look at writing as a craft and as a career.
From studying the market, to mastering self-discipline and "creative procrastination," through coping with rejections, *Telling Lies for Fun & Profit* is an invaluable sourcebook of information. It is a must read for anyone serious about writing or understanding how the process works.
