Publisher's Synopsis
What They Didn't Teach In English Class
Why are some characters memorable?Why do we 'connect' with them?
Why do some plots rivet us, and others leave us floundering?
Why do certain scenes from a story haunt us?
Why are some images brilliantly vivid, and others just dull?
Why do some tales fascinate, while others only bore us? And how do we, as storytellers, make these things happen? Celebrated poet, playwright, and novelist, Ray Malus answers all these questions, and many more. "It all has to do with by-passing the Left-Brain censor, and communicating directly with the Right-Brain." This book will enlighten you. It may infuriate you. It certainly will forever change the way you look at the art of writing. Turn your storytelling into literature, and your writing into art!
