A Quick Read with a Big Payoff

Information comes at us so fast these days. How can we absorb everything we want to learn and do everything we want to do? That’s the question I was pondering when I decided to put together this little book for writers.

Everyone has a story to tell, perhaps more than one. And we want to tell it so that people want to read it. Weak plotting is part that often stops the story cold, and it doesn’t have to be that way. As an author and ghostwriter of numerous novels, memoirs, business books, short stories and even screenplays, I’ve compiled 3 easy ways of plotting that appeal to our various needs and moods as writers.

I’ve presented these in workshops over the years with great success, and some are included in my writer’s manual, Goosing the Write Brain: A Storyteller’s Toolkit. But this tiny tome gets right to the point in a way that today’s writers appreciate.

Like many of you, I have an entire shelf of books on how to write. They’re all wonderful and each presents a slightly different aspect of the craft of plotting. Over the years I’ve absorbed these great ideas, but when I sit down to write sometimes I just need a quick jolt to get me on course. For me, this is it.

Plot Your Story 3 Easy Ways will be available in print and e-book formats. Look for it this week online.
