This was published last week on 7th September. It is packed with useful information. I’m especially looking forward to reading the the sections called How to Show Instead of Tell, and Using the Techniques of Fiction to Enhance Nonfiction. I’m a great advocate of using fictional techniques in nonfiction, which is why I like the so-called New Journalism. For an excellent example of this, read Frank Sinatra has a cold, by Gay Talese.

“Solutions” is published by Souvenir Press, which is an imprint of Profile Books.
