Write your own book NOW

Everyone can tell a story.

But you need to write it down for others to read and enjoy.

Good writers know how to keep readers enthralled to the end of the tale.

You are a writer. It's time to tell your story.

We will help and guide you to publication standard.

Introduction to fiction
What is a story and why have people gathered to hear the storyteller tell a tale since time began? We look at time honoured techniques and ask: Why? How do you start a story? How do you widen it out and how do you end it satisfactorily? Who are you writing for and what do they expect?

Content and style
What is style and which style are you most comfortable writing in? The three things all stories must have. What you must not leave out.

Plot theme and characters
All stories must have a plot. They must have a theme; but which is which? We explain and you decide.

Finding ideas
Writing about yourself is for diaries. We look at finding story ideas that will work for you and for the reader, time and again. Ideas are all about us. We show you how to recognize them.

Dialogue and narrative
When and how to use dialogue that sounds natural. How to use dialogue to move a narrative along at a pace that will hold the reader and make them ask for more.

The novel
Join the world's masters in writing the novel of your times. Study the experts and learn their secrets and how they apply to your writing.

Print or sound
What is the difference in writing for the page or for the ear? We show how the forms differ in very real ways. You choose the medium best suited to your capabilities.

Marketing
Putting it all together, where would you seek a market for your work? How do you go about seeking publication or representation?
