Title: NOT Focused on Short Stories, just on writing in general.
Product review: I was looking for a book on Short Story techniques, not on general fiction writing. This is a book with 33 chapters on writing, each really just an independent essay, and only 3 truly focused on short stories.I feel this was just a book Writers Digest put out to make some money, and what they give us is a collection of essays on writing from various authors. The essays themselves, taken separately, are all interesting and useful, but not what I wanted buying this book.If you want to learn about specific strategies on writing short stories, LOOK ELSEWHERE.
