The Complete Guide to Writing Science Fiction, Volume 1, is a comprehensive writer's guide for the amateur writer. From the pitfalls and cliches common in a first story-and how to avoid them-to selling and promoting a novel, and living the writing life. Every writer will find some value in the wisdom within these pages. Covering both the basics of writing genre fiction, and techinical aspects of the science behind a good sf story, this guide includes seldom covered topics: Alien Creation and Sub-genres, and topics no other book on the subject has written about: Fan Fiction and Graphic Novels. This is a reference guide that no aspiring science fiction writer should be without. All aspiring and newly established science fiction writers should read The Complete Guide to Writing Science Fiction before sending out their manuscripts. - Leslie Halpern, My Shelf Book Review
