Reviews

Anna Faktorovich, a multi-talented publisher, editor and author, has written an impressive study of genre writing. It is comprehensively informative and enticing on an intellectual level and simultaneously encouraging and useful to those who may wish to embark on a writing career that actually produces some income. Formulaic authorship is not as creatively rewarding as producing Lolita or King Lear, but those future Luke Skywalkers and Harry Potters will generate enough money to pay the rent. Robert Hauptman, editor, <em>Journal of Information Ethics</em>
