Write The Book: Conversations on Craft
Arts:Books
Vermont author and environmentalist Bill McKibben, whose new (and debut, after some twelve nonfiction books!) novel is Radio Free Vermont (Blue Rider Press).
This week’s Write the Book Prompt is to find an article in a newspaper or other news source and turn it to fiction, while retaining the underlying thematic point of the original journalistic piece.
Good luck with your work in the coming week, and please listen next week for another prompt or suggestion.
