How to Build a Story ... Or, the Big What If

Frances O’Roark Dowell

A guide to writing fiction that concentrates on developing plot. It addresses the gap between wanting to write and shaping a full, finished story, including the frustration of unfinished drafts and writer’s block. The book presents story completion as something that can seem to require a missing formula, then turns that concern into an encouraging how-to exploration of how fiction comes together. Humorous black-and-white illustrations accompany the discussion.
