Rezension/Vorstellung in eigenen Worten
Ich habe es etwa zur Hälfte gelesen. Gefällt mir bisher aber sehr gut (Update, wenn ich fertig bin). Besonders für diejenigen, die sich an einen Verlag wenden wollen ist es interessant, mal "hinter" die Kulissen schauen zu können. Auch um die Wichtigkeit der ersten 50 Seiten, war ich mir zuvor nicht im Klaren. Es wiederholt ein paar Basics (Show don´t tell, gute Dialoge etc.), aber das schadet sicher nicht. Es ist vor allem einfach zu verstehen und mit guten Beispielen gespickt.

Es ist noch kein Meister vom Himmel gefallen... ?höchstens vom Stuhl? (so viel zu schlechten Siganturtexten O.o)
