The Fire in Fiction (Paperback)

Description:

Maass, a literary agent and author of other books on novel writing, explains how novelists can instill their stories with passion and keep the reader excited and engaged. He contends that passion is a practical tool that can be drawn on at any time and shows how the day-to-day story development of a novel is key. He provides examples of strong characters, settings, voice, and conflict in published novels, and how to make the impossible feel real and write hyperreality, with exercises for working on writing techniques. There is no bibliography. Annotation )2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
