How To Write and more importantly How To Be A Writer

by Stephen Faulds

AUTHOR INTERVIEW


How did you come to write this book?


I set myself the task of running a wiki blog for two years where every single day I wrote personal reflections on the process of writing and my experience as a writer.


What made you decide to publish the posts as a book?


Firstly the responses from beginning writers showed me the interest in the process of writing from a personal point of view. Secondly I wanted a non-fiction title to attract readers to my fiction titles.


How did these posts become a book?


At the end of the two years I simply organised and edited my posts to give them a greater sense of connection.
