The Craft of Writing Science Fiction That Sells
I used this text at university during my first semester in a creative writing class as a freshman. A bare–bones, no-frills guide to "writing science fiction that sells;" details on character development, plotting, dialogue, and creation of setting as a thematic framework for novel or story. Many other similar books exist today rehashing the same rules for writing in this genre, as they have withstood the test of time and ever-changing cultural milieu in this ever-changing literary landscape.
This volume might receive honors as being the first of it's kind for achieving the above when it was originally written. My paperback copy also used a different cover.
