Book Synopsis
'Brilliant, time-tested and clear' advice that will help writers at all stages, in all genres, write their very best book—and then make it better. As a freelance editor for more than a decade, Williams has shepherded books from rough draft to polished manuscripts bought by Big Five houses, university and literary presses, and for independent publishers.

With plenty of fresh examples, insider wisdom, and snappy footnotes, Seven Drafts teaches story, cha
