Publisher's Summary
Could your book be the next best seller? Learn everything you need to know to make sure each story you write is a success.
J.K. Rowling was rejected by 12 different publishers before Harry Potter became a household name…and now she’s worth over $1 billion.
Her story is a powerful lesson for writers: Never give up.
But in the Harry Potter series, Rowling had a powerful weapon: the key to her success wasn’t simply perseverance…. She had a bestseller up her sleeve—and that’s the real reason that, eventually, publishers took notice.
Whether you want to write novels or short stories, you need to know the secret formula for best-selling fiction.
It doesn’t matter whether you write suspense, sci-fi, or romance…. It doesn’t matter whether you plan to selfpublish or approach traditional publishing houses: your book needs to be compelling.
It needs to connect with your audience and keep them engaged—and ultimately, it needs to keep them coming back to buy more of your books.
But do you know exactly what ingredients you need in order to write compelling fiction?
And are you aware of the most common mistakes writers make?
Every writer has their own style, their own signature devices—but from George R.R. Martin to Stephen King, they all have one thing in common: they know how to keep their audiences hooked and hungry for more…and you’re about to learn their secrets.
In Fiction Writing 101, you’ll find a complete guide to nailing a successful book—from the seed of an idea right through to the finished manuscript. You’ll discover:

- Simple steps for creating a realistic and well-rounded character your audience will love (even if they hate them!)
- A comprehensive guide to world building—with illustrative examples from some of the best fictional worlds of all time
- The ‘Show, Don’t Tell’ rule—when it’s right, when it’s wrong, and how to strike the perfect balance
- How to write compelling dialogue that doesn’t make your audience wince
- Why conflict avoidance isn’t for fiction writers—and how to make sure your story has conflict in abundance
- A guide to self-editing you can fall back on time and time again—no matter how much you hate editing
- The art of dealing with rejection (and how you can use it to super-charge your writing)
- Clear, illustrative examples so you can apply top techniques from pro-writers
- Writing exercises to help you hone your craft and sharpen your skills—plus one whole chapter of stimulating writing prompts
