How to Pass Time in Your Novel
zhlédnutí 2KPřed 3 lety
If I could pick one (relatively easy) part of the craft that distinguishes early manuscripts from polished ones, it's how they pass time. Authors who are starting out will often get crushed by the Wheel of Continuous Time. Night is followed by morning, breakfast is followed by lunch, one thing right after another. What's the downside of this? Much of a plot includes scenes or events that are co...

    • @TXVETJEB
      @TXVETJEB Před 6 měsíci

      That's the right question to ask. If you give away an ARC, the reader can leave a review, but if they don't purchase a copy, or download a copy from Amazon during a free promotion, their review is not counted as from a verified purchaser.

      Not exactly. Honest reviews given in exchange for a free Advanced Reader Copy does not vioulate Amazon's review policy. The review isn't from a verified purchaser, but the review isn't in vioulation of an Amazon policy.

Love that Pia gives that 5 part example of her internal chapter structure. I'm sending this to all my non-fiction writing coaching clients. It could save writers a least a year of stumbling around rewriting their non-fiction book. Thanks.

    I disagree when they say if only five people are talking about it how far is it going to go. When you have 5 people those 5 people can advertise it to other people and those people will also talk about it until you find that you have a ton of people talking about your book.

    My character Zoe's lie or want would be believing that her father abandoned her, her mother died but Zoe didn't really know how her mom died. Her father told her that her mother was a beautiful and great woman. but she was diagnosed with a deadly disease. She spends the first half of the story believing that. She believed her father would never come back for her, and so she needed to work to pay the pills at a very young age. she lost sleep because of this. She worked both jobs as a baker and inventor just to get some money for groceries and to pay rent. she worked day and night As she grew more and more sleep deprived over time. she only had one friend at the time and that was Camlia. or as she nicknamed, Cam. The both would talk whenever they could. People didn't realize the stress Zoe was under. not even Cam. And she refused to talk about it. She was bitter, rude, closed-off, and overall, not a very kind character. because she believes her own father abandoned her Zoe's need would be finding out her father went missing to keep her safe from the main Antagionist Pitch, Pitch killed Zoe's mother. and He clearly stated Zoe and her father were next. So Zoe's father ran away despite only being able to be with Zoe for a short time. this let Zoe survive. Zoe get some hints that her father may didnt have want to leave her in the first place, and overall didn't abandon her. The final/3rd act of the story would be Zoe refusing the lie and finally believing the truth. Her father loved her, but he had to leave so she could live. And that her mother was killed, she didnt die from a disease. At the end, She learns to love her parents again. She becomes more friendly and kind towards her new friends, She takes out the washable dye out of her hair so she remember her father a part of her when she looks at herself in the mirror.

You just confirmed what I've known for NINE years. When these come out, they will be HUGE in GOD's time, because they are His work for a greater good. God bless you. Kristina L.
