About this product
Product Information
In this innovative fusion of practice and criticism, Jeremy Scott shows how insights from stylistics and linguistics can enrich the craft of creative writing. Focusing on crucial methodological issues that confront the practicing writer, this book introduces writers to key topics from stylistics, provides in-depth analysis of a wide range of writing examples and includes practical exercises to help develop creative writing skills. Thoroughly revised and expanded throughout, this updated edition more clearly lays out specialist ideas and technical terms within the field of linguistics, and features both greater focus on the creative process and more practical exercises to help writers engage with ideas in their work. Clear and accessible, this invaluable guide will give both students and writers a greater critical awareness of the creative possibilities of language.

Jeremy Scott provides insightful analyses of existing texts and exemplary advice about how to become an engaged and better creative writer., "For people interested in an academic approach to writing that uses ideas taking from narratology and stylistics, please look at Creative Writing and Stylistics by Jeremy Scott. The book is also a great reminder that 'grammar' is only one small part of what a wide range of 'knowledge about language' can be offered to people interested in writing. In brief, it doesn't let the tail wag the dog." -- Michael Rosen "Empowering in its exploration of the nuances of the creative writing process, the revised and expanded edition of Creative Writing and Stylistics is packed with diverse and compelling examples from prose and poetry, as well as superb writing exercises.
