Writing a book is no simple task. It can take over your entire life, and, if not executed properly, can spiral into disaster. Whether you're writing a book of poetry, short stories, non fiction or a novel for any age or genre, implementing a few simple guides can be the difference on a path toward a book's completion. I can help you on your journey. Here are few important things to remember: 1. Character Development - Readers need to connect with characters as much as a writer needs fully realized characters to propel their ideas forward. What would "The Great Gatsby" have been without it's title character? 2. Plot & subplots - A story needs a plot that demands readers keep flipping pages. 3. Flow & style - Even the most riveting plots will leave a reader bored and unconcerned if the right words aren't there. Whether poetically musing in stream of consciousness like Faulkner or Kerouac, or offering witty, sardonic humor in the vein of Vonnegut or Bukowski or anywhere in between, I have a writing style for you. 4. End & twists - The right ending, with possibly a few twists, can transform your book from great to legendary. What would "The Sixth Sense" be without the twist at the end? Even a classic like Huck Finn can suffer from a contrived ending. Twain's novel was historic but many critics and writers, including Ernest Hemingway, said the novel ended roughly 50 pages before its conclusion. Regardless of what you want to write, I have the expertise and creativity to bring it to fruition.
