The New, Improved Playwright's Survival Guide: Keeping the Drama in Your Work and Out of Your Life Tapa blanda - 2005 - 2nd Edición

Información de la editorial

The first edition of The Playwright's Survival Guide made life simpler for writers by offering an emotional, spiritual, and commonsensical approach to the profession and, most important, to their own writing. Now Gary Garrison returns and makes life even easier with a fully updated and revised New, Improved edition of his bible for aspiring and established playwrights.

Garrison's how-to guide includes inspirational stories, tricks of the trade, and reassurance, and it now incorporates new information on dramatic structure, synopsizing a play, and avoiding the perils that can sink well-intentioned staged readings--all while maintaining the candid, enthusiastic, and, sometimes, salty voice that made the first edition so popular.

• uncovering inspiration
• dealing with criticism
• turning off the internal critic
• finding teachers and mentors and then maintaining relationships with them
• self-promoting the smart way
• triumphing over writer's block
• staying healthy in the art and the business after your fingers are off the keyboard.
