Field Guide reviewed at How Publishing Really Works
Fittingly, since the Rose Metal Press Field Guide to Writing Flash Fiction takes an international view of the art form, it was favoured (see? international spelling, even) with some international praise over at the How Publishing Really Works blog. Thanks to Jacky Taylor for writing:
"There are many writing guides brought in on the wave of creative writing courses steadily multiplying across the globe. There are good ones and bad ones: the Field Guide to Writing Flash Fiction is definitely a good one; I would even say a very good one. It doesn't promise unparalleled success or anything else it can't deliver, but does provide real insight into how writers work in this medium doing by exactly what it says on the cover – providing guidance that gently leads the would-be flash writer along the path to making their own work truly shine."

I cant help thinking that 'doing' should read 'going'!
Nice review. Delighted to see it, and lovely to see a Uk review coming in fast!
I was pleased to be able to put up a review of this book, and I hope some sales result (and thanks for letting me know about it, Vanessa).
