Well, it’s a banner month for book releases! 5 Editors Tackle the 12 Fatal Flaws of Fiction Writing released yesterday and is #1 in the Writing Reference category. Positive reviews are racking up as well. THANK YOU to everyone who preread the book and reviewed it. You are the best!
If you’re a writer, I encourage you to check this book out. Its unique format makes it almost a workshop-in-a-book. One Amazon reviewer said, “This book is like getting five self-help books in one.”
Another reviewer mentioned that most of the principles in the book hold true even if you’re writing nonfiction. This is true. Good writing and storytelling tend to follow common lines across genres.
If you want a sneak peak (or four), check out some of these guests I recently did for writing blogs:
- The Fatal Flaw of Underwriting (at Writers Helping Writers)
- The Fatal Flaw in Weak Descriptions (at Jane Friedman’s Blog)
- Fatal Flaw of Fiction Writing #3: Weak Construction (at Speculative Faith)
- How To Make the Most of the Words That Tell Your Story (And Why It Matters) (at Jennifer Blanchard)
And to those of you working on your own books and stories: I wish you all the success in the world!
