Reading Guide for How I Learned to Sing


One of the great things about the Read Regional promotion is that every book has a 'Reading Guide' produced - well, produced as a downloadable pdf anyway. You can see mine here and those of the other 10 writers here.

Each consists of an introduction, written by the writer, some questions for discussion by reading groups, or for deep reflection if reading alone, I guess. At least one of the question in my list is a bit sarcastic which gives you a clue that the writers were asked to think of questions. There are also suggestions for further reading - I took this as an opportunity to point people towards anthologies mainly, including some I'd either edited or been anthologised in that people might otherwise not come across.

I've added the introduction as a separate page here, as it seems to work pretty well on its own. If you come up with any particularly insightful, funny or insulting answers to the discussion questions, I'd be very happy to hear them!
