About
Do you want professional help in writing short stories? Magazine editors think highly of the advice given by Edith Mirrielees. Established authors turn to her for aid and criticism. Writers' conferences welcome her as a lecturer. Her book can help you, too.
STORY WRITING by Edith Ronald Mirrieless is an up-to-date revision of THE STORY WRITER, which became one of the most popular books on writing when it was first published in 1939. It is used by teachers in colleges and universities, and beginning writers find it a readable and extremely helpful text for the study of short story writing. Many prominent editors and successful authors recommend it as the most valuable book on the subject.
The wit and clarity of a really brilliant mind makes the text of STORY WRITING swift reading. Edith Ronald Mirrielees, who taught the short story for many years, analyzes that form of fiction and describes the various theories of story writing, using scenes in published stories as examples.
Because it gives specific, basic rules, tying them to their practical application-rather than simply criticising sample stories-this book is one of the most helpful the professional or amateur writer can have at hand.
