Here is the perfect way to attend a writers' conference without leaving your armchair, with the added benefit of being able to attend every meeting as often as you wish. Writing-program veteran Mettee has brought together over 45 editors, authors, and agents to advise all types of writers on the skills and business of writing. Besides chapters ranging from Suzanne Forster's "How To Write a Dynamic Love Scene" to Eric Maisel's "Writing Self-Help Books," the book also offers a great list of writer's resources, including lists of writers' associations, web sites, and at-home writing courses. A large part of the book covers the business end of writing. An accessible, at-your-own-pace resource that many writers will find helpful. -- Library Journal
