Reviews
This book is a master class in narrative nonfiction, a must-read for anyone who wants to tell true stories. Whether you're a novice writer or seasoned veteran, you will learn from Hart's insight and examples culled from decades of coaching and editing some of the country's best reporters. He shows us how to seek scenes, build structure, explore voices, write riveting stories--then make them sing., Instructive and essential, reading Storycraft is like finding the secret set of blueprints to the writer's craft. Better still, it is engaging, funny and wise--wonderful to read and wonderful to learn from., It's no small feat to make the best better. Yet Jack Hart does just that with the updated version of Storycraft . Of the scores of journalism books on my shelves, Hart's work is among the most essential. He puts language and structure behind the mysterious process of writing, with examples that give any journalist--from student to award-winning--work to aspire to. If you're looking for a guide that is as useful as it is inspirational, this is it., Jack Hart is to writing coaches as Bill Belichick is to football coaches: the best of all time. In Storycraft he shares what he's learned over a lifetime of working with writers on non-fiction narratives that won nearly every major journalism prize including the Pulitzer., Jack Hart is one of the country's foremost writing coaches. Generations of writers found their voices, found their stories, found their heroes, heroines and villains in the news. Under his leadership the whole news industry learned a new way of connecting with its readers. I know I did. The lessons he teaches are about storytelling, structuring, pacing, tension and conflict.These lessons are perhaps even more important now in a digital age that sometimes forgets that--without a story to tell--words, videos, graphs, graphics, emails, alerts and news bulletins are just so much noise., Instructive and essential, reading Storycraft is like finding the secret set of blueprints to the writer's craft. Better still, it is engaging, funny, and wise -- wonderful to read and wonderful to learn from., When I think back on what I have learned about storytelling over the last 30 years, the trail of memory leads back time and again to Jack Hart. No one has done more to inspire better narrative writing in America., Instructive and essential, reading Storycraft is like finding the secret set of blueprints to the writer's craft. Better still, it is engaging, funny, and wise--wonderful to read and wonderful to learn from.

Synopsis
Jack Hart, master writing coach and former managing editor of the Oregonian , has guided several Pulitzer Prize-winning narratives to publication. Since its publication in 2011, his book Storycraft has become the definitive guide to crafting narrative nonfiction. This is the book to read to learn the art of storytelling as embodied in the work of writers such as David Grann, Mary Roach, Tracy Kidder, and John McPhee. In this new edition, Hart has expanded the book's range to delve into podcasting and has incorporated new insights from recent research into storytelling and the brain. He has also added dozens of new examples that illustrate effective narrative nonfiction. This edition of Storycraft is also paired with Wordcraft , a new incarnation of Hart's earlier book A Writer's Coach , now also available from Chicago.

    Item was shipped quickly, and was securely packaged. Items was in at least as good a condition as described; it may actually be in better condition than described, as the book looks almost new and unread. Given the great condition of the book, the price was an exceptional value. Furthermore, I made contact with the seller with a query; and, they got back to me very quickly, and were able to answer all my questions. Overall, a great transaction. I would buy from this seller again. Thanks!

    The book arrived as described and as pictured. It shipped quickly, but was shipped in only a plastic bag mailer, so not much protection. I will also forewarn, the seller does not answer questions about the specific condition of a book. I know because I asked if two different books had any writing in the margins and received the same pre-generated response both times declining to answer. Despite this, I would still recommend this seller if you are willing to shoulder that risk buying used books

    Quick ship and excellent communication. As described in listing. Hardback book a good value for the money. It was packaged in a very thin plastic covering with no padding. The book was fine and not damaged. Delivered on time. I ordered from this seller over the last couple of years. I like to read Beatrice Small's books. A+
