Salkin, Maya Kucherskaya, Cormac McCarthy, Margaret Atwood, Victor Pelevin, James Patterson, Yevgeny Vodolazkin, and many others.
In the first part of the book, you will follow the 'writer's path': from creating a novel to its publication. Where to start working, how to overcome writer's block, where to find ideas, themes, convincing characters, and how to find your style. You will learn about the pitfalls of self-publishing and the specifics of working with a publisher. The second part of the book features dialogues about the craft with well-known writers, where they share their fears and doubts, advice and secrets of mastery.
And remember, no book will teach you to be a writer, but by reading this book and analyzing the experiences of great writers, you may understand how to become one."
