  Samples: 
  "Little by little the writing gets done. A book emerges from the ether, to join its brethren in the great library of mankind. I am the author. Of all possible lives I might have chosen, this one feels right." 
  -- 
  "When I was working on my first novel, then my second, then my third, I kept thinking there would come a day when, finally, I’d have it all figured out. There’d be some novel writing process I could follow again and again that would allow me to write books with far less hassle and strain. Eventually I realized that hassle and strain are the process."

  "I almost hate to tell you about the false solution. Once you’re aware of it, you’ll never be able to read books or watch movies without this narrative slight-of-hand being obvious. From this point on, you’re a magician who knows how the woman gets sawed in half." 
  What critics are saying: 
  "Positive, solid advice offered in a breezy, useful way. It's going on my small shelf of writing books." — Gary Cohn 
  "A must read no matter where you are on the journey!" — Airian Eastman

  Walls of Constantinople The: The...

  In terms of geopolitics, perhaps the most seminal event of the Middle Ages was the successful Ottoman siege of Constantinople in 1453. Naturally, the Ottoman Empire would also use Constantinople as the capital of its empire after their conquest effectively ended the Byzantine Empire, and thanks to its strategic location, it has been a trading center for years and remains one today under the Turkish name of Istanbul. The end of the Byzantine Empire had a profound effect not only on the Middle East but Europe as well. Constantinople had played a crucial part in the Crusades, and the fall of the Byzantines meant that the Ottomans now shared a border with Europe. The Ottomans were viewed as a threat by the predominantly Christian continent to their west, and it took little time for different European nations to start clashing with them. In fact, the Ottomans would clash with Russians, Austrians, Venetians, Polish, and more before collapsing as a result of World War I, when they were part of the Central Powers.  
  Of course, it wasn’t an accident that Constantinople survived for so long. Since ancient times, settlements have been protected by walls, ranging from simple earth fortifications, mounds, and ditches to sophisticated structures incorporating gates and watchtowers. The globe is replete with famous walls such as that built by Hadrian in the north of England and the Great Wall of China, which spans hundreds of miles across a vast landscape. Some of the earliest evidence of defensive walling can be found in Africa, and the Bible includes references to the walls of Jericho, dating back to at least the 8th century BCE. Walls have protected great civilizations and occasionally been their downfall, and the Byzantine Empire relied on Constantinople’s extensive, sophisticated walls, among the greatest engineering achievements of the ancient world and Early Middle Ages, to survive as long as it did.
