Book: Worlds of Wonder by David Gerrold
Age-range: 12 and up
This was a great book! It was written by the guy who wrote "The Trouble With Tribbles" episode of Star Trek (the original one). The chapters are short and easy to read. He gives a great look at writing science fiction or fantasy. There was a lot of great information and good tips.
Of course in any book you're going to have to simplify things using generalizations. I didn't agree with some of his blanket statements about sci-fi, but then I'm not really a sci-fi author, so what do I know?
I would recommend it to anyone who has any sort of interest in writing sci-fi or fantasy. Even if it's your first foray into the genre this will be a helpful book to guide your way!
Happy reading!
