Book Description
"How Story Works is a writing encyclopedia, a road map, and a pep talk all rolled into one--the rare 'How To' that feels like you're having a fun chat with an enthusiastic expert who can't wait to read what you've created. If you have a story inside of you, this book can help you get it out of there and into the world where it belongs." --Josh Siegal, writer and producer, 30 Rock, The Good Place, Saved By The Bell Almost two decades ago, Lani Diane Rich signed a two-book deal with Warner Books and panicked. She'd written one story, but had no idea how she wrote it. Right then, she started on a quest to learn everything about stories. Now, 12 novels and thousands of hours analyzing stories later, she's ready to teach you not only how story works, but how to make it work for you. Whether you're writing novels, films, comics or video games, this theory will teach you what you need to know about craft so that you can get out of your own way and let your magic shine. "Lani's assistance was instrumental in turning my manuscript into an actual book that you can hold in your hands. She won't just make you a better writer, she'll inspire to you to work hard, love your creations, and be proud to take them out into the world." --Luke Arnold, star of Starz's Black Sails and author of The Last Smile in Sunder City
