Publisher Description:
Do you have a story in you?Do you know how to write it or how to tell it?Creating Stories has the answers. Hank Quense, the author of more than twenty books, tells you how to do it. He believes that stories come from the melding of three elements: getting ideas, story design and story-telling. Ideas have to come from the author. Creating Stories covers the last two. The book concentrates on developing characters including such rarely discussed requirements such as a dominant reader emotion and the character's biography.Plots are also covered in depth and a number of graphics are included to illustrate complex points. Another topic discusses subplots and how to utilize them and how to nest them within the main plot.A separate chapter discusses the relationship between the plot and the emotional arcs.Other topics covered are: character arcs, scene design, point-of-view, writing voice.
