Book Description
An indispensable and distinctive book that will help anyone who wants to write, write better, or have a clearer understanding of what it means for them to be writing, from widely admired writer and teacher Verlyn Klinkenborg. Klinkenborg believes that most of our received wisdom about how writing works is not only wrong but an obstacle to our ability to write. In Several Short Sentences About Writing, he sets out to help us unlearn that “wisdom”—about genius, about creativity, about writer’s block, topic sentences, and outline—and understand that writing is just as much about thinking, noticing, and learning what it means to be involved in the act of writing. There is no gospel, no orthodoxy, no dogma in this book. Instead it is a gathering of starting points in a journey toward lively, lucid, satisfying self-expression.

Book Description
The author of Continental Drift, Rule of the Bone and The Sweet Hereafter returns with a very original, riveting mystery about a young outcast, and a contemporary tale of guilt and redemption. The perfect convergence of writer and subject, Lost Memory of Skin probes the zeitgeist of a troubled society where zero tolerance has erased any hope of subtlety and compassion. Suspended in a modern-day version of limbo, the young man at the centre of Russell Banks's uncompromising and morally complex new novel must create a life for himself in the wake of incarceration. Known in his new identity only as the Kid, he is shackled to a GPS monitoring device and forbidden to go near where children might gather. He takes up residence under a south Florida causeway, in a makeshift encampment with other convicted sex offenders. Barely beyond childhood himself, the Kid, despite his crime, is in many ways an innocent. Enter the Professor, a university sociologist of enormous size and intellect who finds in the Kid the perfect subject for his research. But when the Professor's past resurfaces and threatens to destroy his carefully constructed world, the balance in the two men's relationship shifts. Banks has long been one of our most acute and insightful novelists. Lost Memory of Skin is a masterful work of fiction that unfolds in language both powerful and beautifully lyrical.

Book Description
Have you ever heard someone say, I liked the movie, but the book was better? They probably said it because, what must be depicted in under 2 hours on the big screen, can be gradually and methodically delivered over hundreds of pages, adequately capturing the very essence the author intended. Have you ever heard the phrase, a picture is worth a thousand words? Simply put, a single picture can convey in an instant, the equivalent of a thousand words written down. On your quest to create your first novel, you not only need to be able to capture the essence of a movie whilst depicting your story to a depth a movie is unable to realize, you must also be able to illustrate each scene of your story to a degree where your readers can visualize those scenes as if they were staring at a series of pictures. Hence the title of this 3rd and final book in my series titled, Write with the Clarity of a Photo. And apart from the obvious ingredients that go into the creation of a novel, like, plot, characters, setting, conflict and ending, your novel cannot be complete without 3 other equally important facets, theme, narration, and dialogue.
