essential reading for aspiring writers from scalzi
John Scalzi has a couple of must-read posts for aspiring writers that I meant to link to over the weekend:
- Writing Tips for Non-Writers Who Don't Want To Work at Writing filters the best of On Writing through Strunk & White, and delivers outstanding advice for anyone who writes, whether it's for fun, for profit, or
fotfor both.
- The John Scalzi Agent FAQ is exactly what it sounds like.
John takes what could be boring and dry HOWTOs, and makes them interesting and informative. Even if you're not an aspiring writer it's still a fascinating behind-the-binding look at two essential parts of the publishing process.
