In Mastering the Process, award-winning, number-one New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth George shows us how she does it. Drawing from her personal photos, early notes, character analyses, and rough drafts, she shows us every stage of how she wrote her novel Careless in Red, from researching location to imagining plot to creating characters to the actual writing and revision of the novel.
