Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Chick lit: A genre of fiction that often recycles the following plot: Girl in big city desperately searches for Mr. Right in between dieting and shopping for shoes. Girl gets dumped (sometimes repeatedly). Girl finds Prince Charming. This Is Not Chick Lit is a celebration of America's most dynamic literary voices, as well as a much needed reminder that, for every stock protagonist with a designer handbag and three boyfriends, there is a woman writer pushing the envelope of literary fiction with imagination, humor, and depth. The original short stories in this collection touch on some of the same themes as chick lit-the search for love and identity-but they do so with extraordinary power, creativity, and range; they are also political, provocative, and, at turns, utterly surprising. Featuring marquee names as well as burgeoning talents, This Is Not Chick Lit will nourish your heart, and your mind. Including these original stories: "The Thing Around Your Neck" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie "Two Days" by Aimee Bender "An Open Letter to Doctor X" by Francine Prose "Gabe" by Holiday Reinhorn "Documents of Passion Love" by Carolyn Ferrell "Volunteers Are Shining Stars" by Curtis Sittenfeld "Selling the General" by Jennifer Egan "The Seventy-two-Ounce Steak Challenge" by Dika Lam "Love Machine" by Samantha Hunt "Ava Bean" by Jennifer S. Davis "Embrace" by Roxana Robinson "The Epiphany Branch" by Mary Gordon "Joan, Jeanne, La Pucelle, Maid of Orléans" by Judy Budnitz "Gabriella, My Heart" by Cristina Henríquez "The Red Coat" by Caitlin Macy "The Matthew Effect" by Binnie Kirshenbaum "The Recipe" by Lynne Tillman "Meaning of Ends" by Martha Witt Praise for This Is Not Chick Lit "This Is Not Chick Lit is important not only for its content, but for its title. I'll know we're getting somewhere when equally talented male writers feel they have to separate themselves from the endless stream of fiction glorifying war, hunting and sports by naming an anthology This Is Not a Guy Thing."--Gloria Steinem "These voices, diverse and almost eerily resonant, offer us a refreshing breath of womanhood-untamed, ungroomed, and unglossed."--Elle.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Chick lit is everywhere, and for every chick lit reader gorging on the latest Jennifer Weiner, Meg Cabot, or Anne Lamott novel, there are an equal number who will think to themselves: I could do that! I could write a chick lit book! I could write a bestseller and never have to work again! And now, for every fan of women's fiction (and their numbers are in the millions), bestselling novelist Sarah Mlynowski and veteran chick lit editor Farrin Jacobs have teamed up to show this incredibly fast-growing audience of readers how it's done, covering every stage in developing and selling your soon-to-be bestselling novel. The chapters focus on choosing an idea, choosing a point of view, making your characters likable, creating secondary characters, learning the "Three Ps" (problems, plotting, and pacing), revising your text, finding an agent, and much more. Tables, charts, and sidebars sprinkled throughout the text will entertain budding authors with chick lit mad libs, advice from scores of established writers (including Meg Cabot, Marian Keyes, Sophie Kinsella, Jennifer Weiner, etc.), and motivational and inspirational tips from two publishing professionals who really know their stuff. Best of all, these authors are as funny and savvy as any chick lit heroine - and they know that the best chick lit writers are the ones who take chances and dare to take the first steps to success.…
