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.
Paul Schullery and Steve Raymond have written numerous fly-fishing books and are well-known and respected for their skills with rod and pen. The book is the result of their conversations over the years on fishing, writing, and publishing.
