Writing: The Hobby That Pays Book

Everybody's got a book in them somewhere. Or maybe a magazine feature, a newspaper article or even a TV script. Writing is becoming hugely popular, with many people inspired by the 'J.K. Rowling effect'. But it's not all about making money; for anyone with enthusiasm and a love of words, writing is the ideal hobby. This unique book combines both, and shows how writing can be the hobby that pays. It's an easy-to-follow, comprehensive guide aimed at budding writers of any age or ability - but particularly those who've never tried it before and need a little encouragement.

From non-fiction and writing about what you know, to developing characters, plot and dialogue for novels, all the writing fields are here in one book. With a strong, distinctive cover and increased publicity through the author's involvement with writing organisations and their associated publications, this is sure to be a very popular choice with a growing market.
