Book description
Write a Bestselling Thriller: Strategies to Get Your Book Published is
a step by step guide to putting together an unputdownable narrative. It
takes you on a journey through each component of the thriller, breaking
the process down into key factors such as the Hero, the Trigger, the
Story, Scenes and Style. The whole of the second part is devoted to the
publishing process, while the book features hundreds of pratical
exercises. There are diagnostic tests, case studies, practical exercises
and Aide Memoire boxes. Each chapter concludes with a reminder of the
key points of the chapter (Focus Points) and a round-up of what to
expect in the next (Next Step) will whet your appetite for what's coming
and how it relates to what you've just read. Matthew Branton
(Cornwall, England) is the author of four internationally published and
acclaimed thrillers, each of which has sold movie and translation
rights. Since 1997, he has been a consultant for the literacy
consultancy Cornerstones. He is also a freelance journalist for UK
national and regional newspapers and magazines and is a guest writer,
lecturer and tutor.
