Fiction Techniques #2: Characters Wanted is Free

Fiction Techniques #1: Creating Suspense, is no longer free (.99 cents), but Fiction Techniques #2: Characters Wanted, is free now for a few days. If you're a writer, these should be of interest to you. 255 free copies of #1 were picked up, so I hope I'll hear from some folks about it and whether it was helpful.  I also noticed that the numbers for Write With Fire, showed improvement so it looks like someone picked up my writing book as well.

I'm not planning on making Fiction Techniques #3: The Twist Ending, free. It's just 99 cents, though. It's a brand new piece that goes into detail about how to create twist endings, for both stories and for novel chapters that can be used as cliffhangers.

Anyway, if you are interested in writing and haven't gotten your copy of "Characters Wanted," it's up free right now, and will remain that way a couple more days.






Have a great day!

    Are the first two in addition to the main writing book or like excerpts?

    How long will you leave it up Charles for free Charles..If you want send me a copy and paste email and I will make it my blog post for tomorrow or whatever day you want.

    You know to do some background on Write with Fire too. *shrug* I think I can miss a day of my usual if it helps them who really are trying to better their writing.

    Paul, thanks, man. Hope you enjoy.

    Alex,what I did was take excerpts from the book and expand them. So they are probably 80 to 85% of what is in the book for those articles. The Twist Ending piece is not in Write With Fire.

    Mark, thanks, Mark. The second is up for three days. I've got some things to do this afternoon but I'll see if I could get something for you by this evening. I appreciate you're offer, man. Very nice of you.

    Deka, no problem.

    Some say plot is character, but this character has trouble plotting. :)

    Charles, I would grab all three and would gladly pay for all of them, but I don't own a Kindle and don't plan on buying one. Somehow I can't bring myself to have more clutter in my life (books don't count!).

    Greg, :)

    Patti, the giveaway went pretty well.

    Ivan, but no trouble being a character.

    Merisi, ebook readers aren't for everyone. I really like my kindle for helping me declutter when I travel. I just take it. But it does add another thing to keep up with.

    Laughingwolf, back at you!
