About this ebook

 Have you tried to take your writing skills to the next level but don't know where to begin? 
Do you dread the thought of writing narrative description because as a reader you skip over it when you read novels?
 
Or are you a writer who ignores Setting description totally in your novel writing--but know your story needs it? You just don't know where.
 
Active Setting, explained in comprehensible bites with clear examples from a variety of published authors can help YOU breakthrough with your writing skills. 
 
Readers usually remember the plot and characters of a story, but setting is every bit as important in creating a memorable world. Novel writing can be enjoyable once you've mastered a few of the writing skills necessary to bring a story to life.
 
If you're tired of your Setting descriptions being ho-hum and are ready to create a compelling story world, regardless of what you write, or your current level of writing skills, keep reading.
 
In WRITING ACTIVE SETTING Book 1: Characterization and Sensory Detail you will:
  • Discover the difference between Ordinary Setting that bogs down your story, and Active Setting that empowers your story. 
  • See how to spin boring descriptions into engaging prose.
  • Learn to deepen the reader's experience of your story world through sensory details.
  • Notice how changing characters' POV can change your setting.
  • Explore ways to maximize the setting possibilities in your story.
This book goes straight to the point, putting theory in plain language, adding examples from authors in a variety of genres, and finishes each section with exercises designed to help you work with your Setting in a way that will excite you. . .and your readers!

About the author

A few fun facts about me

I'm a fiction addict and a non-fiction enthusiast.

I love learning from Robert McKee, Cathy Yardley, Donald Maass, Karl Iglesias, Blake Snyder, and too many other authors to name.

I have been known to stay up all night to finish a new novel, devouring first and then re-reading to analyze.

I love teaching others about ways to improve their own fiction because I too have learned from other writers.

I'm a USA Today Bestselling author who has fan girl moments at every writer's conference I attend. 

There's not a type of fiction that I don't love and study (except horror, if it's done really well it can scare the willies out of me and then I get nothing done for days! So I moderate my horror consumption).

I love being an author of both fiction and non-fiction work.

Love writing. Love talking about writing. Love sharing writing. And I love hearing from readers. Email me, anytime, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
