Let’s make a bet. No, let’s make two bets.
First, I bet you’ve started a novel, gotten a ways into it and then gotten stuck because you couldn’t figure out where it was going.
Am I right? If so, how did I know? It’s because that’s happened to nearly all authors, especially when they’re first getting started.
It’s frustrating, isn’t it?
Fortunately there’s a great solution! The structuring techniques I’ll show you in this book will guarantee you know where you’re going before you even start. And that makes finishing so much easier.
Okay, here’s my second bet: I bet you’ve written something you felt passionate about, but when you looked at it later it seemed flat and uninteresting.
That was an easy bet, because we’ve probably all done it. This book will show you how to fix that dull prose, and turn it into something big and wonderful, something that flows well and excites your readers.
If you’ve already started a novel, then as you read this book you’re going to want to apply each technique to your existing material, and often I’m sure you’ll find the improvements amazing.
If you haven’t yet started a novel, congratulations! You’re in the ideal position, because you can start with a clean slate and put together a perfect plan. That will save you an incredible amount of time—and several major revisions.
So how did I do on my bets? Have you gotten stuck, or become disenchanted in the past? In either case, this book will fix that problem. It’ll provide the first aid your novel needs in order to achieve your goal: publication. And I’ll even have some tips to help you get into print.
Oh, and here’s one final bet: I bet that by the time you reach the end of this book you’ll be amazed how many new tools you’ve learned that will make your writing the best it can be. Now that’s a bet that can’t be beat!
How to Fix Your Novel is available in paperback or for Kindle.
