One Way to Write a Novel
Nonfiction on Writing“A handbook of tips and tricks, a how-to book with heart. [This] quick reference guide belongs on every writer’s desk, in an arm’s reach, right beside Strunk and White’s The Elements of Style.”
“The important thing,” says the multi-published author, mentor and writing instructor, Vicki Hinze, “is to love what you’re doing.”
There is no right or wrong way to write a novel, but Hinze shows you one way–her way–which has helped her write and publish award-winning, bestselling novels, time after time.
In this book, she opens her personal toolbox of methods and guides that you can alter to fit your own process to get your novel started, written, tested, and submitted.
One Way to Write a Novel explains Hinze’s techniques for creating memorable characters, plotting, using plot boards, testing ideas, avoiding common errors that net rejections, building a novel notebook, formatting manuscripts, writing effective dialogue, pacing, testing novel focus and much, much more–all in a fun and organized way.
As Hinze says, “Your writing is time from your life and because it is, it should be the time of your life!
