{"product_id":"on-teaching-and-writing-fiction-9780142001479","title":"On Teaching and Writing Fiction","description":"Wallace Stegner founded the acclaimed Stanford Writing Program-a program whose alumni include such literary luminaries as Larry McMurtry, Robert Stone, and Raymond Carver. Here Lynn Stegner brings together eight of Stegner's previously uncollected essays-including four never-before-published pieces -on writing fiction and teaching creative writing. In this unique collection he addresses every aspect of fiction writing-from the writer's vision to his or her audience, from the use of symbolism to swear words, from the mystery of the creative process to the recognizable truth it seeks finally to reveal. His insights will benefit anyone interested in writing fiction or exploring ideas about fiction's role in the broader culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Adult Hc\/Tr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/03\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780142001479\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.78h x 5.06w x 0.39d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/15\/2002 pg. 1516\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/15\/2002 pg. 727\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Wallace Stegner","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43448909922485,"sku":"9780142001479","price":20.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_2639ec8b-8516-4796-96bc-9640c04af3f7.jpg?v=1704214345","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/on-teaching-and-writing-fiction-9780142001479","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
