"In Seven Drafts, Allison K Williams is your partner in shaping
your writing into something that is worth buying." -Ashleigh
Renard, author of SWING
"Allison Williams understands at a molecular level what makes prose
work. As a sounding board, beta reader, and
drop-everything-I'm-doing-to-meet-her coffeehouse workshop partner,
Allison has made my writing better. Let her do that for you."
-Christopher Buehlman, author of The Lesser Dead and The
Blacktongue Thief
"Allison is one of the most gifted writing teachers I know. She's
like a friend privately taking you aside, delivering the honest
truth you need, in a way that makes you enthusiastic to keep on
going, even when the work gets very hard." -Jane Friedman,
publishing expert and author of The Business of Being a Writer
"Allison coached me from first-ever-very shitty-sentence all the
way through publishing my debut novel with Knopf. She taught me
everything-from writing how-to, to prioritizing my writing time
(yes, I was allowed to let the dirty dishes stack up in my sink!)
to navigating the publishing industry." -Rhiannon Navin, author of
Only Child
"Seven Drafts contains specific examples from popular books that
illustrate her points, exercises guaranteed to improve your
writing, and a comprehensive self-editing checklist that will have
you yelling, 'Jackpot!'" -Lisa Ellison, Editor and Writing
Coach
"I had nearly given up on finding an agent when I decided to rework
my manuscript with Allison's help. After the revisions, an agent
who had told me I could resubmit decided to represent me, and my
book was acquired by Penguin Random House!" -Karen Fine, author of
The Other Family Doctor: A Veterinarian's View of Love, Loss,
Mortality and Mindfulness
"Incredibly well-written, funny and filled with great examples to
help writers improve their craft." -Jessica Jarlvi, author of When
I Wake Up and What Did I Do?
