This Year You Write Your Novel

De: Walter Mosley

Narrado por: Dion Graham

"A straightforward, friendly guide for aspiring writers" (Los Angeles Times): No more excuses. With award-winning author Walter Mosley as your guide, you can write a novel now.
"Let the lawn get shaggy and the paint peel from the walls," bestselling novelist Walter Mosley advises. In this invaluable book of tips, practical advice, and wisdom, Mosley promises that the writer-in-waiting can finish their novel in one year.

Intended as both inspiration and instruction, this book provides the tools to turn out a first draft painlessly and then revise it into something finer. Mosley teaches you how to:

• Create a daily writing regimen to fit any writer's needs -- and how to stick to it.
• Determine the narrative voice that's right for every writer's style.
• Hook readers with dynamic characters.
• Get past those first challenging sentences and into the heart of a story.
• And much more.

"No-nonsense advice that is sure to set beginning writers along the righteous path to real authorhood." --Seattle Post-Intelligencer

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Walter Mosley has penned a marvelously encouraging and -- far more important -- useful guide to writing."—San Diego Union-Tribune

Fantastically Short and to the Point

I was looking for a book to recommend to someone who wants to write, but is not a big reader and eschews fluff of any kind in instructional material. This is the book for him. It gives great advice and covers the basics of what is necessary to write a book in a year. The narrator is excellent and adds another dimension to the writing. I heartily recommend this to you if you have similar characteristics as my new writer friend.

Walter Mosley is genius

Mr Mosley you are right I will write my book this year thank you for the wonderful information and thank you for picking one of the greatest narrators in this known world I followed Mr Graham's narrations all over Audible this is the first how to write your book tutorial I've actually made it through I love to read and I have about 500 audiobooks in my collection but it's very hard to listen to the Drone of those Professor like narrators I guess that's why you're a genius you know exactly how to write the perfect tutorial with the most phenomenal narrator

Finally!

A prized author that is able to express what’s needed to write a novel, without the “filler” to increase the length of the book! Well done, Walter Mosely!

Thank U Mr. Mosley

As of October, 2023 I am a published author! After reading/listening to this book, I now know my missteps and also where I did okay. I chuckled when you said that the first draft should be completed in three months. It took me 4 1/2 months to do so, but I am still proud of my work and thankful for your book and the sharing of your gift!
