These books are every writer's dream! I’ve ordered other workbooks before, but they’re always fill-in-the-blank with a bunch of repeat pages and weird, irrelevant questions.
This is the first one I’ve seen that actually has invaluable reference material and explains why certain elements are important. Plot, Character creation and world building are the three major pillars to telling an engaging story, and if one falls flat it can capsize the whole boat.
These workbooks will guide your creative process and help you elevate your story without stripping away the fun or originality. Ugh, I’m in love! Not to mention there’s customizable templates so you can interweave your story while learning.
