Building a Foundation...
23 Dec 2011
Format:Diary
I've been writing novel-length books since I was fourteen and I've always treated novel-writing like building a house. Building a good foundation is pretty much imperative if you want the rest of the "house" to be stable. True, there are people who dive right into a story without any world-building, character-building, or any of that, but it's rare that that's successful. And this little gem of a book has all kinds of fun exercises, from family trees to character profiles to different scenarios for you to write out that really help you think about your characters, their world, the plot, and the novel as a whole. Whether you're a novice or a pro, this book is helpful to any aspiring novelist. Give it a whirl. I think you'll like it.

Great for a writer, both published and not
28 Jan 2012
Format:Diary|Amazon Verified Purchase
These workbooks have really helped me flesh out my characters as well as plot out any major events that happen in the story. It even encourages you to write a few scenes of the characters past so you get a better feel on how the character came to have the personality that he did. I own one for every manuscript I'm working on plus an extra in case and idea hits out of nowhere. It also helps outline and summarize your ms so that you can create a synopsis much easier than trying to come up with one after the book is completely written.
I recommend this to all writers, no matter where they are in their career.
