Personal Review: From First Draft To Finished Novel: A Writers
Guide To Cohesive Story Building by Karen S Wiesner
I read this book and 'First Draft in 30 Days'. They're not set up to require
you to buy both, but they compliment each other very well. I got just as
much helpful info from each book, not repeats like I've found from other
'series'.
I can't say enough good things about this book. I can now figure out where
my issues are in each MS, prop up the middles and get them cohesive.
While I may have been able to eventually get published with out the help of
these books, I don't think it would have happened any time soon.
At first glance, her method looks a bit complicated. But after reading the
book all the way through, and starting at the beginning, It is rather very
simple.
There are some things I use (99%) while I discard the items that don't work
for me.
As for typing in the worksheets into Word myself, It took me about a half an
hour. I typed them up once(customized to my tastes), as master copies,
and now I'll be able to use them for any book I decide to write.
