a book on writing

Easy-to-use techniques, fiction writing prompts and creative writing tips
that open doorways to your imagination.

Whether you are a beginning writer or writing a novel, short story, memoir or creative nonfiction, whether your fiction writing is flowing or you are in the grips of writer's block, The Art of Fiction Writing will get you writing like never before!

The Art of Fiction Writing is a workbook. I've written it to make is seem as if we are sitting together in a private coaching session.

Here's a sample of what you will learn in this course on writing:

  • How to develop three-dimensional characters.
  • How to turn fact into fiction.

  • How to interview characters so they spill the beans of their lives and their stories without you having to work so hard! This a great technique that you won't find explained so clearly any place else. There are more than fifty interviewing questions that you can use over and over again.

  • How to write sex and sensuality... they are not always the same! There's a chapter and a section on the tape called, Eros.

  • How to identify and quiet your Inner Critic... Quieting your Inner Critic, the single most important step in unleashing the passion of your writing. The Art of Fiction Writing shows you how.

What does Falling Down The Rabbit Hole Have to Do With Writing?

Falling down the rabbit hole into Wonderland is a perfect metaphor for the creative journey which can never take place in the “real” or conscious world. Writing, whether it be fiction, poetry or nonfiction, finds its origins in the fertile chaos of the unconscious - your personal Wonderland! How do you get there? Follow the White Rabbit. The Art of Fiction Writing will show you how!

Read What Writers Say About The Art of Fiction Writing:

"I picked up your books and tapes yesterday after a long hiatus. They brought me the same joyful intensity as the first day. I wrote the most amazing things in your workbook... You have helped me find myself, my best self, my voice. "

~Celeste Regal

"I have always dreaded the thought of "how to books". But I was so pleasantly surprised by your insight, your point of view, and introducing me to a part of me that I always suspected was somewhere inside my psyche, inhibiting the Inner Writer."

~Evan Kopald

"Your book and tapes helped jump-start my writing for adults. I now write just about every day and I know that my attitude underwent a shift around the time I started reading your book and listening to your tapes. So thank you. It's been a joy."

                            ~ Bob Zaslow

Bob's play, The Monk of Morris Park Avenue, was produced at the Manhattan Repertory Theatre in December 2007.
