Book description
A must-have book for any new writer and a welcome addition to the
library of established writers who are hoping to 'up their game'.
Have you ever wondered why your short stories are rejected? What is
the secret of selling your work? How do you make sure your characters
are memorable, your plots realistic and your twists both satisfying
and unpredictable?
Della Galton answers these and many more questions using a format
that will already be familiar to writers: What? Why? When? How? Where?
and Who?
