Writer's World boosts widening acceptance for award-winning author Christopher Klim's WRITE TO PUBLISH: Essentails for the Modern Fiction & Memoir Market. "This is one of the best handbooks Ive come across, fun to read and full of useful information," states Maryanne Raphael of Writer's World.
Writer's World (www.WritersWorld.com) lays more praise on popular author and writing coach Christopher Klim and WRITE TO PUBLISH: Essentials for the Modern Fiction & Memoir Market.
"Press has been outstanding," says Publicist Karin Seidel. "To many apsiring writers, this appears to be the book they've waited for."
Here's what Maryanne Raphael of Writer's World had to say:
This exciting informative book takes its readers step-by-step from an idea to publication and marketing. They learn how to do effective research, create a compelling opening, choose the best setting, introduce the main character, find the point of view, set the tone & the rhythm and keep conflict going. Author Christopher Klim reminds us that a storytellers main job is to entertain, and one way to do this is to make sure "the story always comes first." He explains how to deal with details, appeal to the senses & emotions and get a satisfactory ending. The author describes his book: "Through discussion, example and exercise, this book explains the craft of storytelling in the written form and ways for reaching editors, agents and ultimately, readers in the modern fiction and memoir market."
Klim feels that part of a writers job is "interpreting the human condition." He goes on, "The necessity for a relevant story remains as vital to humans as food and water. A story forms a metaphor for life experience, delivered in an infinite variety of styles, contexts and mediums. It is how we make sense of the highs and lows and everything in between." His book is full of quotable quotes such as, "My Iroquois ancestors teach that we are given two questions to answer within our lifetimes: Who am I? Why am I here?" And another: "The behavior of a successful writer promotes an inappropriate set of social skills."
Although he believes talent cant be increased or measured, Klim feels we can "amplify talent by learning about the craft." He offers an interesting, helpful exercise after each chapter. And he gives a sample query page, novel synopsis, examples from his short story and how to submit a novel. Klim says writers need to pose the right questions so readers will keep reading to find the answers. The story question is based on the main characters goal.. He shows us how to use action and dialogue to develop character and move the plot along.
This guide offers proven strategies for practicing our craft and discovering inspiration. He shows us how to create page turners for every page. Anyone who wants to write and/or publish will profit from this book. Author Klim gives us the essentials needed for a marketable novel, sharing his success methods, his own personal secrets. Readers learn how to plan a novel, grab the readers attention and keep it, choose a theme, and a powerful title. It is obvious this author is passionate about writing and teaching writing. His passion is contagious, inspiring all who are fortunate enough to be exposed to his expertise and enthusiasm.
WRITE TO PUBLISH is not only a great handbook on how to write and publish your novel or memories, its a great read. Klims control of the language, his quick wit and thorough knowledge of the art is an unbeatable combination. This is one of the best handbooks Ive come across, fun to read and full of useful information.
