David Hewson’s non-fiction spans several categories. His early work includes technical guides like Introduction to Desk Top Publishing and The Quark XPress Companion, both from 1988. He also wrote travel books about East Anglia, Wessex, and setting up a life in Spain.
His later non-fiction shifted toward the craft of writing. Writing a Novel with Scrivener from 2011 became a popular guide for writers using that software, and Writing: A User Manual from 2012 is a comprehensive guide to the novel-writing process based on his own experience. Saved, about an English village fighting for its future, shows his interest in community stories beyond fiction.
