Plot defines where you'll spend more words dramatizing a part and where you'll summarize.Because plot is hard for so many writers to get their mind around, this book approaches it in three different ways. A good story invariably follows certain key points. You might gather all you need from one way of plotting or combine them to create your own unique plotting style.

About the author

Chris Rogers was born in Texas and raised in the days of EC Comics and “B” horror flicks that could chill you down to your funny bones. She resides in a small community within commute of the four major Texas metropolises, where she ghostwrites business books and memoirs while turning out her own novels and short stories. Chris has taught mystery writing at the Rice University School of Continuing Studies, the University of Houston and in private master classes. Her students have received numerous awards and acknowledgements for their works. After a career in graphic design, Chris became a writer the easy way: She read voraciously and filled blank pages with drivel until her fingers cramped and her brain defected. Eventually, she learned to craft a decipherable sentence. Author of the Dixie Flannigan series, Bitch Factor, Rage Factor, Chill Factor and Slice of Life, Chris has published stories and essays in, among others, Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine and Writer’s Digest.

This is an easy to read, clearly explanatory pamphlet. Worked best for me bc I had a specific plotting question going into this book. I got my answer within the 1st ten pages.
