Craft in the Real World

Rethinking Fiction Writing and Workshopping

Matthew Salesses

This manifesto and practical guide challenges current models of writing and the workshop, showing how they fail marginalized writers and how cultural expectations inform storytelling. The traditional writing workshop was established with white male writers in mind, but this examination of elements of writing and aspects of workshop asks questions to reach writers with diverse backgrounds. Drawing from classic examples, the author invites us to reimagine craft and teaching methods to better reflect the world we write about. A must-read for fiction writers, teachers, and students.
