Автор: Le Guin Ursula K. Название: Steering the Craft: A Twenty-First Century Guide to Sailing the Sea of Story ISBN: 0544611616 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780544611610 Издательство: HarperCollins USA Цена: 15630.00 T Наличие на складе: Ожидается поступление. Описание: From the celebrated Ursula K. Le Guin, a writer of enormous intelligence and wit, a master storyteller (Boston Globe), the revised and updated edition of her classic guide to the essentials of a writer's craft.
Completely revised and rewritten to address modern challenges and opportunities, this handbook is a short, deceptively simple guide to the craft of writing.
Le Guin lays out ten chapters that address the most fundamental components of narrative, from the sound of language to sentence construction to point of view. Each chapter combines illustrative examples from the global canon with Le Guin's own witty commentary and an exercise that the writer can do solo or in a group. She also offers a comprehensive guide to working in writing groups, both actual and online.
Masterly and concise, Steering the Craft deserves a place on every writer's shelf.
Автор: Sabatino Lindsay A., Fallon Brian Название: Multimodal Composing: Strategies for Twenty-First-Century Writing Consultations ISBN: 1607328453 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781607328452 Издательство: Sterling Рейтинг: Цена: 17570.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Multimodal Composing provides strategies for writing center directors and consultants working with writers whose texts are visual, technological, creative, and performative--texts they may be unaccustomed to reading, producing, or tutoring. This book is a focused conversation on how rhetorical, design, and multimodal principles inform consultation strategies, especially when working with genres that are less familiar or traditional.
Multimodal Composing explores the relationship between rhetorical choices, design thinking, accessibility, and technological awareness in the writing center. Each chapter deepens consultants' understanding of multimodal composing by introducing them to important features and practices in a variety of multimodal texts. The chapters' activities provide consultants with an experience that familiarizes them with design thinking and multimodal projects, and a companion website (www.multimodalwritingcenter.org) offers access to additional resources that are difficult to reproduce in print (and includes updated links to resources and tools).
Multimodal projects are becoming the norm across disciplines, and writers expect consultants to have a working knowledge of how to answer their questions. Multimodal Composing introduces consultants to key elements in design, technology, audio, and visual media and explains how these elements relate to the rhetorical and expressive nature of written, visual, and spoken communication. Peer, graduate student, professional tutors and writing center directors will benefit from the activities and strategies presented in this guide.

Автор: Peter Selgin Название: Your First Page: First Pages and What They Tell Us about the Pages that Follow Them: Revised Workshop and Classroom Edition ISBN: 1554814731 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781554814732 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 27720.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Your First Page is unlike any other craft book on writing. It is based on the premise that almost everything that can go right or wrong in a work of fiction or memoir goes wrong or right on the first page. The book grew out of an experiment for which writers submitted nearly one hundred anonymous first pages of works-in-progress for analysis. The experiment proved two things: that first pages function like canaries in coal mines, forecasting success or predicting trouble. They establish the crucial bond between writer and reader, setting us off on a path toward the heart or climax of a story, or they fail to do so. The experiment also demonstrated that from first pages we stand to learn most of what we need to know to succeed as authors. The new workshop and classroom edition has been revised to better fit the needs of creative writing instructors and workshops.
