Writing Deep Point of View

Professional Techniques for Fiction Authors (Writer's Craft, Book 13)

De: Rayne Hall

Narrado por: Cat Lookabaugh

Do you want to give the readers such a vivid experience that they feel the events of the story are real and they're right there? Do you want them to forget their own world and worries, and live in the main character's head and heart?

The magic wand for achieving this is Deep Point of View.

Readers love it, because it gives them the thrill of becoming a different person. The reader doesn't just read a story about a gladiator in the arena, an heiress in a Scottish castle, an explorer in the jungle, a courtesan in Renaissance Venice - she becomes that gladiator, heiress, explorer, or courtesan.

In this book, I'll reveal the powerful techniques employed by best-selling authors, and I'll show you how to apply them to rivet your readers. I'll start with the basics of Point of View - if you're already familiar with the concept, you can treat them as a refresher - and then guide you to advanced strategies for taking your reader deep.

This is not a beginners' book. It assumes that you have mastered the basics of the writer's craft and know how to create compelling fictional characters. If you like, you can use this book as a self-study class, approaching each chapter as a lesson and completing the assignments at the end of each session.

Very helpful and informative

As a beginning author this book was incredibly helpful. It showed me many of the simple mistakes I was making in my writing and how to easily correct them. The information is well presented and the narration is pleasant and engaging. Five stars, highly recommended!

Descriptions and Character Lensing Advice is umatched

This series is unmatched when it comes to POV Character lensing and sensory descriptions.The language is straightforward, the advice concrete with evocative examples, causing me to consider my draft(s) at every turn. So few writing primers focus on page-to-page, word-for-word advice. This helps the aspiring writer choose the next word. Authoritative, insightful, thought-provoking advice like this is worth more than the 1 Audible credit here. She is fantastic.

professional writing advice

Now I have to rewrite my book. I thought I was done, I thought my story was well written, nope. I'm certain that it will be amazing once I apply what I learned here.

It's good.

There are good information that is worth the time and price of this audiobook. The narration though is too fast and sounds too excited throughout the book, making it difficult to enjoy and learn from the listen. Maybe a physical copy is better.

Both of Rayne’s books are essential for writers

Out of all the fiction writing books you only need these two, Save the cat writes a novel, and the great courses by Bell.

I didn’t know if Rayne’s audiobooks would be useful on top of the books about structure, but they are crucial. have listened 3x to each. Wish there was a pdf.
