In this revised and
expanded edition of Your
First Novel, novelist Laura Whitcomb, seasoned literary agent Ann
Rittenberg, and her knowledgeable assistant, Camille Goldin, team up to
provide you with the
essential skills needed to craft the best novel you can—and
the savvy business know-how to get it published. Complete with updated
references, analysis of new best-selling novels, and the same detailed
instruction, Whitcomb will show you how to:
- Practice the craft of writing, using both your right-
and left-brain
- Develop a flexible card system for organizing and
outlining plot
- Create dynamic characters that readers love—and love
to hate
- Study classic novels and story structure to adapt
with your ideas
Featuring two new
chapters on choosing your path as an author and understanding the world of
self-publishing, Rittenberg and Goldin dive into the business side of
publishing, including:
- What agents can—and should—do for your future
- Who you should target as an agent for your burgeoning
career
- How the mysterious auction for novels actually goes
down
- Why you should learn to work with your agent through
thick and thin
Guiding your first
novel from early words to a spot on the bookshelf can be an exciting and
terrifying journey, but you're not alone. Alongside the advice of industry
veterans, Your First Novel
Revised and Expanded also includes plenty of firsthand accounts
from published authors on their journeys, including Dennis Lehane, C.J. Box,
Kathleen McCleary, David Kazzie, and more.
