Orson Scott Card: "How to Write Science Fiction and Fantasy"
Writers Digest Books | ISBN: 0898794161 | 1990 | PDF | 70 Pages | 1,1 MB
This book is an excellent resource, summarizing why and how one writes science fiction or fantasy. The book is a beginner's book, and only a passing familiarity with science fiction and fantasy is needed to understand the occasional name-dropping of books and authors. The language used is at the late middle-shcool/early high-school level. The book is broken into easy-to-digest sections within chapters, and reading the book is a joy rather than a chore.
