The Artful Sport is a guide for fly-fishing writers and readers, those who want to write a book or magazine article, and those who enjoy reading in the subject. The book goes far beyond the basics of a simple writer’s manual. Its authoritative and sympathetic instruction delivered in lively style, an insider’s take on how fly-fishing books, magazines, and journals happen. The book is filled with the practical rules and guidelines good writers need and good readers appreciate plus well-told stories, many amusing or appalling war stories of the writer’s life, lots of writing and reading advice, and any number of perspective-altering revelations about the sport. The book will appeal to those attracted to the sport’s solid literary roots and to the budding Waltons with aspirations to publish.
