Good tips for when you get stuck for ideas. Useful as a reference. ( ) This book has been sitting on my shelf for at least 15 years, and I finally sat down to read it. It's surprisingly good for a "how to write" book. Unlike many books that advocate the one true way, it gives a wide variety of strategies and techniques, what makes them effective, and why you might choose one over another. And, despite the title, digs quite a bit into plot and theme how they interact with character. Rating: 4 of 5 Appreciated the vast array of examples.Usually books on writing are heavy on "the rules" but light on showing them in use. Not the case here. Except, in listing numerous examples - there were 100+ books referenced - Kress also gave away book details, like twists and endings. So be forewarned: while reading this book, if you see a title you haven't read, you may want to skim across that bit to avoid spoilers. Useful advice, well-written and non-preachy. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
A truly unforgettable story is defined by its characters. Their motivations, their changes, their actions compel us to read on, anxiously trying to discern what will happen next. In Dynamic Characters, award-winning author and Writer's Digest columnist Nancy Kress explores the fundamental relationship between characterization and plot, illustrating how vibrant, well-constructed characters act as the driving force behind an exceptional story. Kress balances her writing instruction with hands-on checklists to help you build strong characters from the outside in. Blending physical, emotional and mental characterization, you'll learn to create characters that initiate exciting action, react to tense situations, make physical and emotional transformations, and power the plot from beginning to end.
