Starting your book off right

Words to Write by

In this podcast we give our first impressions of our new book, Jack Bickham's Scene and Structure, and, being the enthusiast students that we are, we begin by identifying his central thesis. Then it's onto Chapter 2, where we answer some novice novelist questions and discuss Bickham's approach to a story's first page. To further our understanding, Kim "Bickhamizes" the beginning of her new fantasy novel.
As a bonus, Renee has a special message for any former Border employees who worked the late-night Harry Potter release parties back in the 90's.
And if you're looking for more details on starting you book, check out our extensive show notes.

Remember, we have a Writers Process meetup every Wednesday. Check us out.
