Eleanor Nilsson author of Writing for Children –
Riding the Wind is an eminently readable discussion about writing from a very successful practitioner. It is generous, sensible, practical and wide-ranging. The tips and insights evident throughout would be of help to any writer, no matter how experienced. She reveals how she learnt to be a writer herself, overcoming difficulties, always prepared to listen to criticism and rewrite from scratch if necessary. This aspect of the book will be particularly encouraging for aspiring writers.
