Book Synopsis The Bed Book of Short Stories by : Lauri Kubuitsile
Download or read book The Bed Book of Short Stories written by Lauri Kubuitsile and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2010-05-25 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bed, dressed in hand sewn quilt or threadbare blanket, may in and of itself be memorable, but it is what happens in the bed the sex and lovemaking, the dreams, the reading, the nightmares, the rest, giving birth and dying which give bed special meaning. Whether a bed is shared with a book, a child, a pet or a partner, whether lovers lie in ecstasy or indifference, whether bed relates to intimacy or betrayal, it is memories and recollections of bed, in whatever form, which have triggered the writing of these thirty stories by women from southern Africa. Well known writers Joanne Fedler, Sarah Lotz, Arja Salafranca, Rosemund Handler and Liesl Jobson will delight, but you will discover here new writers from Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Malawi, Namibia and Zambia, each with a unique voice as they cast light on the intimate lives of women living in this part of the world and the possibilities that are both available to and denied them. The BED BOOK of short stories some quirky and tender, others traumatic or macabre is the perfect companion to take to bed with you, to keep you reading long into the night.

Book Synopsis The Work Of Craft by : Carla Needleman
Download or read book The Work Of Craft written by Carla Needleman and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2013-06-12 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Work of Craft is a profound meditation on the relationship between craft and craftsman. Focusing in turn on pottery, weaving, and woodcarving, and grounding her insights in her own experiences as a potter, Carla Needleman shows that the basic material every craftsman works with is himself or herself. The stuff between one's hands-the clay, the wood, the wool-responds to the quality of one's inner state. The product of one's work is not just an object but a way of being. Thus, the exploration of a craft is--like this book--an exploration of the processes of life itself.
Book Synopsis Screenwriting Down to the Atoms: Digging Deeper Into the Craft of Cinematic Storytelling by : Michael Welles Schock
Download or read book Screenwriting Down to the Atoms: Digging Deeper Into the Craft of Cinematic Storytelling written by Michael Welles Schock and published by Scriptmonk Industries. This book was released on with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books on screenwriting claim to have all the answers. Yet, quite often, the more an aspiring writer reads, the more confused they become by contradictory statements, incomplete perspectives, and methods that fail to do more than scratch the surface. Screenwriting Down to the Atoms was written to end the confusion. It picks up where the best leave off and makes up where the rest fall short by looking closer and digging deeper to reveal the true principles behind great cinematic storytelling. Screenwriting Down to the Atoms takes the basics far beyond the basics. Rather than the superficial approaches found in many guides, Screenwriting Down to the Atoms explores screencraft from the inside-out. It boils the craft down to its simplest elements, and then builds upon those fundamentals in a step-by-step manner clear enough for anyone to understand. Most importantly, rather than command writers to imitate WHAT tends to work in this or that movie, Atoms explains HOW movie structures work and WHY they are so effective, revealing flexible principles that may be applied to any story. Structure should adapt to the needs of the story, not the other way around. Whether you are working on your first screenplay or your fifteenth, Screenwriting Down to the Atoms provides knowledge found in no other source. You will discover storytelling’s “golden key,” an elegantly-simple structure residing behind all other structures. You will learn to satisfy viewers by fulfilling their wants, needs, and expectations. You will understand how the most entertaining story experience arises from the creative control of information. Most writers toil for years to learn these principles. With Atoms, you may take a giant leap forward from the very start. Why remain stuck in the dusty, short-sighted methods of the past century? Screenwriting Down to the Atoms offers the next-generation screenwriting guide for the next generation of screenwriters.
