Overview

""WRITING THE NOVEL FROM PLOT TO PRINT TO PIXEL is like having a pocket-sized mentor you can consult any time. Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy.""-Alex Kourvo, Writing Slices Lawrence Block is almost as well known for his instructional books for writers and his 14 years as a monthly contributor to ""Writers Digest,"" as he is as a bestselling author and MWA Grand Master. WRITING THE NOVEL, his first book for writers, has remained continuously in print since its original appearance in 1978. Recently revised and expanded, each chapter has been updated, and Block has included essential information on digital publishing, self-publishing, how to get published, and the perils-and opportunities-awaiting debut and veteran novelists alike. Unlike so many advice-givers, Block doesn't tell you what book to write, or the one and only way to write it. He holds that every novel is different, and so is every novelist; his aim is to give you the tools to enable you to find your own way. You will find chapters on: deciding which novel to write developing plot ideas and characters outlining rewriting getting published self-publishing and so much more! In this revised edition, WRITING THE NOVEL FROM PLOT TO PRINT TO PIXEL, Lawrence Block retains all his original text while creating a writer's guide that's fifty percent longer than previous editions. As he would be the first to tell you, you don't need this book-or any other-to succeed as a novelist. Still, thousands of writers have found it most helpful-and who couldn't use a little extra help?
