'The Kite and the String' is a writing guide that explores both the stages of creative work and the practise of developing effective attitudes. Writing well does not result from following rules and instructions, but from a blend of spontaneity, discipline and particular attitudes toward the work. Writers must learn to be tolerant of the early stages, to move from jottings and ideas to a messy first draft and then onward from there into the work of revision.
