About this book

True to Life sets out fifty steps for turning your own experience into a written story, in essay or book form. Beth Kaplan asks writers first to put on the writer's hat, then the editor's, and then to dig into the details that give a story its force.

The steps cover reading like a writer, the use of the first-person 'I', claiming your own truth, writing from scars rather than wounds, and entering the marketplace. Each step builds on the one before, so the book works as a course as well as a reference.

BPS Books published the book in 2014. It runs to 240 pages. ISBN-13: 9781927483909.
