Unf*ck Your Novel
Is your novel in trouble? This book will help you fix it. Featuring 50 irreverent but highly practical lessons to help you write and revise your novel.
Learn how to repair bad dialogue, enliven dull characters, increase suspense, and streamline a bloated plot. Discover which pitfalls to avoid, which words are more cringe-worthy than you think, and why you should read Chekhov instead of Dickens. Learn why you should leave the moon and a certain brand of cologne out of it, and why the humble apostrophe is your best friend.
Above all, learn how not to be boring.
If an agent or editor has told you that your novel lacks urgency, if your dialogue sounds stilted, if you started a novel but can't get past page 50, if your point of view is all over the place, if your subplot doesn't work or your sentences don't sing, if your novel has gone off the rails, you need this book. It's tough love for novelists who can't seem to catch a break.
Recommended for novices and for experienced writers who want to get your novel back on track.
