Description

Craft an emotionally charged story that will resonate with readers!

Emotional impact shouldn't be dropped into your novel as an afterthought or forced upon your story with a pair of pliers and an iron grip.

It should be carefully sewn into the fabric of the story to create tension-filled moments that will keep readers turning pages.

In Writing with Emotion, Tension, & Conflict, you'll learn how to layer emotional moments and deep connections to create a tapestry filled with conflict, pathos, and genuine feeling. Create emotional depth, conflict, and tension in your novel by carefully crafting plot, characters, setting, word choice, and more. Learn what makes readers "tick" and what will elicit the strongest emotional responses. Write believable, emotional scenes and dialogue--and trim away the sappiness. When writing a novel, your ultimate goal is to make readers smile, weep, rage, and laugh right along with your characters.

Writing with Emotion, Tension, & Conflict will show you how to evoke a multitude of feelings in your readers--and keep them coming back for more. "Not only does this book embrace some of the most complex elements of story construction in a clear, easy-to-digest format, it acts as inspiration for the writer.

Sentence upon sentence of outstanding advice!" --Mary Buckham, award-winning author of Invisible Recruits urban fantasy series "From initial plotting to building setting to developing characters to organizing your work, Writing with Emotion, Tension, & Conflict brims with essential knowledge and practical exercises which combined create a toolkit that no aspiring author can afford to be without." --Kelly L.

Stone, author of Time to Write: No Excuses, No Distractions, No More Blank Pages and Thinking Write: The Secret to Freeing Your Creative Mind
