Techniques
of the Selling Writer --The reviews that come alongside this title
speak for themselves. In our extensive library of "how to" books on writing
Dwight Swain's title is tops. Thorough, methodical, easy to read and understand,
the book walks both seasoned and beginner writers thru the maze of the craft of
writing and demystifies it all. An excellent resourse to come back to time and
time again. This is a must read title if you not only want to write
fiction...but want to write fiction that sells! Buy a good highlighter when you
get this book as you'll find yourself underlining page after page from
the tremendous wealth of information it contains.

Time
Stops for No Mouse: A Hermux Tantamoq Adventure. The
discussion on this title is open to all but we would specially like to hear from
young people who will read it and comment on it. We found this to be a fun and
engaging tale of adventure, spy capers and a tiny bit of romance thrown in. The
author, in particular, gets a 5-star rating from us for his marketing
savy. Originally self-published, it earned the author a 7-figure income
when the title was recently bought by a major publishing house. CCF will
post top three book reviews received from kids 12 and under.
