You can not praise this book. There are lots of books there, but this is really important for me.
Think about writing as traveling in the forest: you stand up, you get into confusion, and you will come out on the other side. By doing so, we will try to use as many tools and resources as possible to take it to the other side, but most of the time you fail (or the tool fails you) you are hungry Wild animals can eat them. Chaos of the story. James Scott Bell wants you to understand that the most useful tool you can have is you. His skills, advice and exercises are all one thing, only one thing: to release the power of your story, to use it (and how to survive)
It provides clear and direct tools and techniques to solve many of the burning process that you feel difficult to find. It is a must read article for those interested in researching plot and storytelling. A related example considers the profiles of various writers, and Bell does not have an example of exploiting movies (most of the movies it refers to as books, Maltafalcon, Godfather, etc.). It includes useful exercises at the end of each chapter to help you to put the technology into practice and make the most of your learning experience. It really helped me overcome some of the problems encountered in the creation of my novel and opened my mind and started a new range of plots and strings ... this is a great book. Written in the same grasped style proposed by the author, and great success
I do not get reliable advice, so I think this is a wonderful book. It is very important to me. Let me explain my feelings with the following example.
- Bell's Book: Many authors did this before and after you found a solution. If this does not work please try this, or try again later and try again.
Write the truth: For me (ambitious novelist) this means taking a place in my own story and letting my character have all the conversations and expressions. I can create a plot using a bit of grammar and play, but please do not touch the story (my character will never forgive me!). This is very convenient for me. Do not place a scene of death, or a scene where the character dislikes someone or something. Write it when you "see". 3. Do not be afraid. This is the same as the photo. Many people do not like your sentences or consent. Some people advance further by hindering other people from reading your sentences. If you actually wrote it (real adverb?) And honestly (Oh, my nervousness) I will have hundreds of people who love you in all 10 people who hate you. scared!
The author of the novel is looking for ways to quickly fix the drawing, the structure of Rosetta Stone. Other writing media such as news, essays and most poetry have a predetermined structure, but unlike genres, novels have many exception rules. For this reason, about 150 articles explain various drawing methods and stories, and the snowflake method and the journey of the hero are best known. Writers often never get misunderstood when these methods are chosen, and they always see it as a sacred tool that has to determine every chapter and every scene of a novel or story. Another assumption is that if you adhere to these drawing methods faithfully, you will get a nice, well-written story. That is, of course, completely wrong. The drawing structure is not a magic modification for poor writing. But they can be a wonderful tool for analyzing your own work.
