Gutkind discusses everything from finding a saleable subject to creative research to writing techniques. He then turns his attention to getting the work in print, with tips on how to approach book and magazine publishers, work with editors, and find an agent. LEE GUTKIND (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) is a professor at the University of Pittsburgh. He founded two literary journals-Pennsylvania Review and Creative Nonfiction-and has written 5 previous books, including the award-winning Many Sleepless Nights.
