Storyteller Tools: Outline from Vision to Finished Novel Without Losing the Magic

Beri tahu saya ketika buku ditambahkan

Ken MacLeod: “…very useful in getting from ideas etc to plot and story.”
Hannu Rajaniemi: “…find myself to coming back to [this] book in the early stages.”

M Harold Page wrote and sold three novels in 2013, in each case starting from scratch. This handbook shares the creative outlining techniques that enabled him to speed from vision to completed novel, again and again.
• No more unfinished writing projects!
• Turn sweeping visions into viable stories, fast!
• Grow a novel out of anything no matter how vague: an opening; some characters; a story world; a philosophical idea; a theme; a map; a gaming setting…
• Conjure up conflicts and story questions to drive your plot.
• Write usable outlines “in flow”.
• Learn to use your storyteller instinct!
• Lose yourself in creating stories for other people to lose themselves in.

Remember, nobody is looking over your shoulder, nobody is criticising as you write. If and when your novel is published and hits the e-readers and bookshelves, people will admire your vivid imagination and attention to detail. They’ll picture you hammering out the tale all at one go. That’s all that matters.

World Paragraphs encompass anything external to the POV Character's mind, including their body; however, what they describe is still (a) subjective to that character and (b) uses their voice, i.e. only that language and imagery available to them.
