This book will be cherished read and a great garnish for your bookshelves!\n\nFrom the blurb:�\n\n\"\"Do you have a great story to tell but don�t know where to begin or how to give it shape?\n\nWhether you�re an aspiring writer or a seasoned one, a writer of fiction or narrative non-fiction, Kissing the Demon will help you navigate the maze of plot construction, narrative viewpoint, character development, dialogue creation and description even while allowing your imagination to flow.\n\nWritten by an editor and publisher who has for over four decades nurtured some of India�s finest writers, it also tackles the insular world of publishers, agents, contracts and editors. It tells you how to find a publisher or agent, what gets a publisher�s attention and what turns it off � all the stuff writers take years to learn.\n\nFinally, it offers solutions to the vexing issue of balancing everyday life with writing, a problem every writer faces and the reason why so many books remain unwritten.\n\nGeorge Orwell once described writing as a horrible, exhausting experience and that he wouldn�t have written a single book were he not driven by some demon he could neither resist nor understand. Kissing the Demon will make your journey as a writer a little less painful, make you look upon that demon with a little more love.\n\nAbout the author:\n\nAmrita Kumar is an anthologist, novelist, writing-mentor and creative writing teacher.
