This book is an unconventional manual for anyone desiring to become a ""rich writer"" and avoid simultaneously existing as a ""poor writer."" As a basic instruction guide, it's a logical analysis of language rules to help writers of all ages accomplish their goals. Included are essential writing lessons clarified by life-long writer Lindsay, plus stories, essays, and poetry that demonstrate how the author developed as a ""Rich Writer, Poor Writer."" Lindsay is a rich writer, meaning she has written millions and millions of words, including a few that are not politically correct. Within these pages are samples of her newspaper columns which lashed out against flawed parts of the environmentalist and women's movements. The author of 11 books also explains exactly how she became a rich writer, and the reason some of her works resulted in receipt of checks after publication, while some did not.
