Writing Popular Fiction

"Speaking from experience, I can tell you there isn't a muse and if there is, she's already dating someone else." If there isn't a muse, as you'll read in this invaluable book for writers, MANY GENRES ONE CRAFT is surely the next best thing. No matter what you want to learn--from choosing the point of view for a scene, from getting the most out of a critique group to fine-tuning your final draft, from approaching a literary agent to promoting your published book in print or electronically or both--it's all there. The contributors know their stuff, and what they're teaching applies to writing at any age. MANY GENRES ONE CRAFT covers all the bases superbly, including issues I haven't seen addressed anywhere else in today's rapidly shifting publishing landscape.

MGOC Events: Western Maryland Indie Lit Festival

Editors and authors from Many Genres, One Craft participated in the 6th Annual Western Maryland Indie Lit Festival in October as part of Raw Dog Screaming Press and Dog Star Books.

In attendance were Michael A. Arnzen, Heidi Ruby Miller, Jason Jack Miller, and K. Ceres Wright.


Jason gave a reading on Friday evening from his novels Hellbender and The Devil and Preston Black. Then Heidi and Jason sat on a panel about the author/editor relationship.


The majority of the panels were on Saturday: Ceres spoke about poetry; Jason had his second year discussing writing locally; Heidi sat on the DIY and Self-Publishing panel; and Mike spoke about teaching.
