In these essays, Angela Slatter - the celebrated author of the Sourdough stories, the Verity Fassbinder series, and (as A.G. Slatter) All The Murmuring Bones - tackles just what it takes to sustain a writing career after your book has launched.
Building on years of blog posts, keynotes, and articles, What To Do When You Don't Have A Book Coming Out explores ways you stay visible and sustain a writing career, with advice on doing public readings, applying for grants, engaging with your community, and surviving the fallow periods when the next release seems very distant
Whether you're a new writer trying to plot out your career, or an existing fan of Slatter's writing looking for yet more sage advice, this chapbook provides a second look at the philosophy and processes behind one of Australia's most acclaimed writers of fantasy and horror.
Specialising in dark fantasy and horror, Angela Slatter is the author of the Aurealis Award-winning The Girl with No Hands and Other Tales, the World Fantasy Award finalist Sourdough and Other Stories, Aurealis finalist Midnight and Moonshine (with Lisa L. Hannett), among others. She is the first Australian to win a British Fantasy Award, holds an MA and a PhD in Creative Writing, is a graduate of Clarion South and the Tin House Summer Writers Workshop, and was an inaugural Queensland Writers Fellow.
