For true writing fans, nothing gives goose bumps like holding the yellowed, type-written pages - complete with proofreading marks - of Kesey's "Cuckoo's Nest" manuscript, his seminal novel published in 1962.

Value-added extras include sample form contracts, a list of typesetting specifications, copy-editing and proofreading marks, sample page layouts, a 27-page model stylebook, and 10 newly updated pages of resources for newsletter editors.
