Writing Short (Kerry Hammerton)
REVIEW BY:

“It was a revisiting into the short burst of a story and what things to be aware of, like the immersive imagery; the way the arc may form; internal dialogue of the character and points of view and all of this derived and influenced by the idea of 'free-writing'.”
