The Fiction Writing Maps: A Step-By-Step Guide to Characters

On Writing
Most people sit down to write a novel without ever having done it before. That sounds crazy, but it's true Familiarity with the English language doesn't guarantee mastery of the novel writing process.

What Writers KnowGreat writers do one thing differently: they study novel writing. They learn how to translate their ideas into words, craft characters who leap off the page and master the art of story.

Now you can, too.

The Fiction Writing MapsA Step-By-Step Guide To Characters explains the process by peeling apart the layers of novel design to expose the nuts and bolts of writing. We show you how to plug your own ideas into that framework and write industry standard prose.

How Does It Work?Though each character is different, they all require the same fundamental information. We studied hundreds of novels, analyzed thousands of characters and distilled it all down to a straightforward process.

Examples, tips and techniques help you create beautiful prose that does the job it's meant to do. We've designed guided questions at the end of each chapter and built templates for you to use as you flex your writing muscles.
