Draft No. 4: On the Writing Process

Very disappointing collection of reprints, most of which I had read before. I was hoping for a more sustained discussion of the craft of creative non-fiction (of which McPhee is an absolute master), but this was rather bitty "hints and tips", mostly too specific to McPhee's own style to be really useful, and bits of autobiography (which were fine, but I'd read them before).

outstanding review of a successful lifetime's work at writing non-fiction. Well worth a careful read

Sehr gut Einleitung zu schreiben

I love McPhee's writing and you always learn something.
