From the Inside Flap

REVIEW by J. N. Leigh, E-books Net

As an experienced editor and writer, I want to acknowledge this gem - The Secret Pillars of Writing - and pass it on to newbies and experienced writers alike.

Friedberg has compiled an amazing write-your-best-novel kit in under 100 pages. For aspiring writers, he lays out the cardinal rules for writing top-notch, heart-pounding, must-read novels. For experienced writers, he throws out one gem after another for how to make your writing fresh and exciting.

This little book contains the most important elements of plot, structure, characterization, pace, conflict and a lot more from someone who knows how to do it. Hard to believe he would give all of this away for free. I especially liked Friedberg's handling of writing sharp dialogue, non-stop suspense, and gripping conflict.

One word of caution - don't read this book without reading Friedberg's newest suspense thriller "Lost Relic of the Gods." It is an essential companion to the Secret Pillars of Writing. You'll get to see everything he recommends in action. I've read dozens of books on writing and this one takes the most important highlights of ALL of them and condenses them into one fast read. This book is essential for every writer's library. Availiable in paperback and e-book on Amazon.

PS: this is the only Writer's Guide that actually reads like a suspense thriller itself---with a bizarre Hannibal Lecter-like humor that makes easy, fun reading! --E-Books Net
