The Nuts and Bolts of Writing
MICHAEL LEGAT
This is a much needed book, designed for the thousands of would-be authors who want to improve their chances of publication, and especially for those who have difficulty with such matters as punctuation, spelling, grammar, and the choice of words. These, Michael Legat says, are the tools of the trade, and every writer should take the greatest care with them. His simple, straightforward explanations will prove invaluable for any writer eager to learn and to produce better work.
The second half of the book is concerned with the preparation of a typescript, market research, submissions, contracts, and many other sublects related to the professional approach to writing. The advice which the author gives, stemming from his long experience both as a publisher and as a successful writer, is authoritative and always constructive.
Michael Legat's An Author's Guide to Publishing has come to be regarded as the standard work on the subject. The Nuts and Bolts of Writing is a perfect companion volume to set alongside his other popular book, Writing for Pleasure and Profit, which The Writers' and Artists' Yearbook described as 'the best of the recent introductions to writing'.
