Vous rêvez d'être écrivain, vous voulez écrire un roman qui transporte les lecteurs, mais vous ne savez pas par où commencer, comment aller au bout de votre manuscrit ou vous ne trouvez pas de maison d'édition pour votre livre ? Écrire un roman est LE guide pratique qui vous permettra, étape par étape, de réaliser enfin tous vos projets d'écriture. ÉCRIRE UN LIVRE EST UN PROJET COMME UN AUTRE, ÊTRE ÉCRIVAIN EST UN MÉTIER COMME UN AUTRE. On trouve normal d'apprendre des techniques en piano ou en dessin, mais en France (à l'inverse des Etats-Unis où l'écriture de fiction s'étudie à l'université), on croit qu'on ne peut pas apprendre à écrire.

While Bree - my best friend since forever - couldn’t get enough of “Trouble” and their lead singer, Rob Burns, I set my sights a little lower - and to the left. Rob’s immediate left, that is, at least on stage. Tyler Cook was Trouble’s lead guitarist, a tall, glorious, dark blonde, beautiful specimen of a man who could make ovaries explode and panties drop with just one twist of that smirky smile of his. Of course, it was all just in good fun, two girls going to Trouble concerts and screaming ourselves hoarse along with the rest of the fans.

When I met Tyler Cook, it was the end of a past I didn’t want to look back on and the beginning of a future I couldn’t wait to start. One lick of Tyler, and that’s all it took. I was addicted. To him, to his wild, raucous life as a rock star on the road with the band Trouble, and eventually, to most of the drugs I discovered he was taking to make that life - and the secrets he was being forced to keep - a little more bearable. But I couldn’t quit him, no matter how much it hurt. If you met Tyler, you’d understand why I think he’s so worth it.

Danny has a new phone and wants to play on it, but his mum sends him upstairs to clear his Great Gran's box room. Danny finds an old photograph of a girl about his age and some small paintings tied in a red ribbon. When he undoes the ribbon, the girl from the photograph appears in the room. Her name is Kitty. She asks him to play a game with the pictures, but he is rude to her, saying he'd rather play on his phone. Kitty is offended and whisks him back to 1886, where the paintings are all real people. The game is that he has to find the person to help him unlock time to get back home.

This debut collection from Eley Williams centres upon the difficulties of communication and the way in which one's thoughts - absurd, encompassing, oblique - may never be fully communicable and yet can overwhelm. Attrib. and other stories celebrates the trickiness of language just as it confronts its limits. Correspondingly, the stories are littered with the physical ephemera of language: dictionaries, dog-eared pages, bookmarks and old coffee stains on older books. This centres on the weird, tender intricacies of the everyday where characters vie to 'own' their words, tell tall tales and attempt to define their worlds.
