The Romancer - Wendy Robertson - Bog

'Dreamers, optimists, visionaries, enthusiasts, escapists.' Wendy Robertson declares that all writers are 'Romancers'. 'It gives a rare glimpse of what it's like to be inside the process of writing - the exact moment when the events of a writer's life become the fabric of fiction.' Kathleen Jones 'A moving and compelling exploration of the links between a writer's life and her work. The Romancer should appeal to readers and writers alike. Pat Barker More than just a memoir, this is a master-class on the writing process.' Sharon Griffiths. In this book Wendy Robertson explores the way memory and dreaming - alongside conscious and unconscious memory - have flourished at the roots of her fiction. Here aspiring and experienced writers will find writing processes and practical approaches - including Wendy's Forty Day Plan for writing a novel - to re-imagine their own lives, inspire their fiction and develop their writing to the point of success. Wendy Robertson has published more than twenty three novels - both historical and contemporary - and two short story collections. She lives in the north of England
