E-grāmata: Creative Writing and Stylistics, Revised and Expanded Edition: Critical and Creative Approaches

For people interested in an academic approach to writing that uses ideas taking from narratology and stylistics, please look at Creative Writing and Stylistics by Jeremy Scott. The book is also a great reminder that 'grammar' is only one small part of what a wide range of 'knowledge about language' can be offered to people interested in writing. In brief, it doesn't let the tail wag the dog. * Michael Rosen * Empowering in its exploration of the nuances of the creative writing process, the revised and expanded edition of Creative Writing and Stylistics is packed with diverse and compelling examples from prose and poetry, as well as superb writing exercises. Approaching creative writing from the inside, this book is a brilliant handbook for students, teachers and independent writers. Jeremy Scott provides insightful analyses of existing texts and exemplary advice about how to become an engaged and better creative writer. * Cassandra Atherton, Professor of Writing and Literature, Deakin University, Australia *
