Summary:
"The dynamic world of reading and
writing
has changed greatly over the past few years. Writers are pitching their ideas online, exchanging works in progress with critique partners and forming street teams to promote their work. Writers need to direct online traffic to their book and stimulate sales. In this vibrant new edition, Marion Crook explains some of the nuances and choices about the
writing
world online that can overwhelm writers. She introduces new opportunities in a genre called New Adult for 18-25-year-old readers. As well, she revisits the fundamentals of
writing
: establishing character, creating lively dialogue and developing plot with stories from her own
writing
career and with updated worksheets and examples. How to begin a story, plan plot, develop and hone it for an agent or publisher. How to make the crucial submission for a book that agents want to represent and publishers want to buy. The author helps you create the book that can help you create the manuscript that sells"--Provided by publisher.
