title: Flogging the Quill: Crafting a Novel that Sells
author:  Ray Rhamey 
description: It's a winner! For some time now, I've been a fan of Flogging the Quill, Rhamey's excellent blogsite about the how-to's of writing. Now he's compiled his expertise into a writing guide, and it's a must-have for any novelist--published or just aspiring. It's one of the most readable, entertaining books on writing out there. Whether you're writing your first novel or your twentieth, this book will provide the kick you need to start writing--and keep writing. Bestseller Tess Gerritsen<br /><br />As an owner and managing editor of a publishing company, I've read many submissions that were near-misses. If the writers had had the benefit of this book, they'd be published right now. Witty, funny, and engaging, this is a must-read for the burgeoning storyteller and serious novelist, and it's a necessity for all editors who seek to nurture their writing clients. Laura Abbott, Editor/Publisher, Amber Quill Press<br /><br />Learn the critical art of revision--ruthless and rigorous self-editing--from a man who understands it better than most. If you are ready to do the work, Ray Rhamey's book provides the sort of practical, sensible advice that really can help you become a better writer. Dan Conaway, Literary agent, Writers House<br />
