Writer's Conference in a Book The Squaw Valley Community of Writers on the Art of Ficton

Since 1969, the prestigious Squaw Valley Community of Writers has helped develop the art and craft of many who are now household names. Instructors such as Michael Chabon, Mark Childress, Diane Johnson, Anne Lamott, Robert Stone, and Amy Tan have distilled their advice and wisdom from seminars and lectures, and the result is a book that captures the workshop experience of complete submersion in the writing process. With an introduction by novelist and short story master Richard Ford, himself a conference attendee in the 1970s, this volume gives the writer and dedicated reader a jolt of inspiration, sharp insight into matters of technique, and a feeling of camaraderie with a writing community.Ford, Richard is the author of 'Writer's Conference in a Book The Squaw Valley Community of Writers on the Art of Ficton', published 2007 under ISBN 9780811858212 and ISBN 0811858219.
