Product Description

Review

My book of the year, of the decade. I laughed. I cried. I was gripped as Piddock's fantastic story unfolded. Read this book. Buy it for your friends. They ll love you for it. --Payne Braddock (Book Monthly)

You won't stop turning the pages. Not only the best writer's manual I've ever read, but Piddock's stories of past girlfriends, present friends, and his tragic marriage are riveting. A masterpiece. --Bernard Pollack (The Review Review)

Already a classic! A book that will stay with me. The story of his rivalry with a fellow How To Write writer, which led to a major miscarriage of British 'justice', still haunts me. Surely the best book ever written. Everyone else, stop writing now. There s no point. Brian has said it all. --Paddy Brinnock (Association of British How To Write Writers)


Product Description

Recently Brian Piddock became famous for all the wrong reasons (and he still insists he was entirely innocent of any wrongdoing, and certainly didn t start that fire. In fact, he claims he could himself easily have been killed in the ensuing inferno. Or scorched quite badly, anyway). But this book isn t about Brian. His notoriety wasn t the reason we at Neil Rhodes Books decided to publish How to Write a How to Write Book. It's definitely not an attempt to cash in on his name. No. After all, How to Write a How to Write Book is an extremely useful and instructive book. In fact as soon as publisher Neil Rhodes received Brian's manuscript he knew he had finally found the book that would redefine the publishing world. It's the book that will tell all you less-than-successful authors where you went wrong. No longer need you try and sell your novel or play or memoir and be rejected again and again. Now you can write your own How to Write book and at last success will be yours.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well it certainly made me laugh!, 15 Jul 2007
I have to say that this is one of the best books I have read for a while.

The author has, it would appear, had a very hard time getting his work published. Well, now that he has, I anticipate the name of Brian Piddock becoming a household one.

Years ago, I read 'Three Men in a Boat'. I read it again. Then I read it again. I have read it several times since. The same goes for many of P. G. Wodehouse's efforts. 'How to write a how to write book' is just the same kind of book - it gets better every time. I find myself looking forward to my favourite passages as the pages turn.

This book is a good one, and I am looking forward to Mr. Piddock's next opus.
