Like all professions, to be the best at what you do, you have to work at it.

The guides are clearly written and easy to understand and will help anyone with the dedication and desire to write to master the techniques of writing a story of any length; from a short story to a novel. This guide, Turning Your Idea into A Story, contains all you need to start you on your writing journey. It includes: * The nine building blocks of story * Developing strong characters * Establishing point of view * Creating the best setting * Character interview questions.
