Writing 21st Century Fiction will help you write a novel for today's readers and market, filled with rich characters, compelling plots, and resonant themes. Author and literary agent Donald Maass shows you how to: Create fiction that transcends genre, conjures characters who look and feel more "real" than real people, and shows readers the work around them in new ways. Infuse every page with an electric current of emotional appeal and micro-tension. Harness the power of parallels, symbols, metaphors, and more to illuminate your novel in a lasting way. Develop a personalized method of writing that works for you.

Hello, Littens! It‘s been a while! Thought I‘d share a photo of my #usedbooks #bookhaul from the SSO Book Sale. I haven‘t bought books in a long, long time so it felt so good to go book hunting! All of these are #tbr but with #Nanowrimo approaching, I‘m looking forward to reading the tagged book ASAP.

BarbaraBB Good to see you back ❤️ 2y
