This book addresses the major elements of fiction. Numerous examples, questions, and exercises throughout the book help readers reflect upon and explore writing possibilities. The mini-anthology includes a variety of interesting, illustrative, and diverse stories―North American and international, contemporary and classic, realistic and experimental. Review: Uniquely valuable - This is expensive but worth more than 10 of the typical writing books, which are repetitive and superficial. Instead, Deepening Fiction does what the title suggests with great rigor and practicality. And the writing examples are precisely relevant and well-chosen. Thank you to the authors. Review: Excellent Book, truly - Hi, I have read at least twenty books on the craft of writing. (Someday, I will be a world-famous novelist.) Anyway, this book is truly wonderful, I would not say that if I did not mean it. For one, it features something I have wanted to see for years and years: the first draft of a work, then revisions, more revisions, and its final form. Invaluable, in that it shows the work methods, the honing, the forming, and of course the published version. And a good section on POV, laying out the general rules of each, their advantages and difficulties, etc. A lot of interesting short stories, along with analyses of each. This book is one of three that I really feel are worth the time to read and re-read. (The other two? Elements of Style, of course. And Stephen King's, 'On Writing'. If your goal is to be a published writer of fiction, buy this book. So many books on how to write fiction are a waste of time and a horrible reason to turn a tree into paper, this one is worth it.
