Elinore Denniston lays out, without waste or bombast, the experience of a lifetime of writing – as a translator, ghost writer and widely read mystery writer. Her passion for the written word, its power and importance to the human condition, is evident from the first page of this book to the last. She began writing as a translator in New York City in the 1930s, and wrote under the pen name of Dennis Allen, and later of Rae Foley, creating a dedicated following of those who appreciate well-plotted, carefully crafted mysteries without the debris of four letter words and pointless violence. This book is, more than anything, a word of encouragement and advice to one who would be a writer.
