Damn Fine Story: Mastering the Tools of a Powerful Narrative by Chuck Wendig
5.0
As an author I'm always looking for tips, ideas, or previously unknown magic tricks to improve the experience for my readers. This little gem of a book provided all three.
This isn't a book about grammar, or style. This isn't a book about the finer details of sentence, or paragraph, structure. This is something more subtle and far more useful. This is a book about formulating a good story.
Wendig's humor turns a useful guide, and learning tool, into something that's a pleasure to read instead of a dry, dusty tome.
