Overview

This isn't just a book about how to write-this is a book about how to be a writer.

In this book, you'll find:

* Ideas for how to carve out writing time-and actually use it to write.

* Tips on plot, characterization, and world building.

* A super-brief overview of the three-act story structure.

* Insight into the business side of publishing books, including handling reviews and interacting with readers.

* An example of how to handle editing a manuscript from start to finish.

All in an extremely brief format to get you back to your writing as quickly as possible.

My experiences along my writer's journey have been incredible so far. I've had to stretch beyond my comfort zones, learn techniques to become more adaptive to the industry's needs, and ask myself questions I had no idea were part of being a writer. I read many books about how to write, but didn't find much in the way of handling the business side of things. This is me sharing some of what I've learned, in the hopes that other writers may gain some insight into the craft, the industry, and how one writer is handling the challenges involved in crafting a writer's life

About the Author

Cassandra Chandler has studied folklore and mythology for her entire life and been accused of taking fairy tales a bit too seriously. Her romances range from sweet to scorching, set in extraordinary worlds and driven by characters searching for a deep and lasting love. She sees the starry sky as a destination rather than a matte painting, though her primary residence is on Earth.

You can follow her thoughts on writing, life, and mostly writing at www.cassandra-chandler.com or see her real-time ramblings on Twitter (@casschandler).
