About the Book
Writing the Australian Crawl presents a new attitude toward the teaching and practice of writing—a writer isn't simply a craftsman with something to say and the skill to say it. Rather, a writer brings those attributes into a process that is filled with exciting emergencies and opportunities. In the end, something emerges that is greater than the sum of its parts.
