Synopsis
Are you thinking about writing fiction? Writing a novel? Trying to improve a manuscript? Then you need to know all about scenes and sequels.
Scenes and sequels are the one-two punch of a story that make it page-turning fiction. If you don't know what they are and how they work, how can your tale reach its potential? Writing fiction isn't easy, but trying to write a novel without a solid understanding of scenes and sequels will fall flat.
You can learn about scenes and sequels in three ways: (1) just start writing and hope you figure it out over time, (2) read lots of books and attend a bunch of seminars, or (3) study a book devoted entirely to the subject. Mike Klaassen has already read the books and attended the seminars. Combining his copious notes with his own writing experience, he's clarified and expanded the concepts of scenes and sequels. Save yourself a ton of time, money, and frustration with one comprehensive, concise book.
Inside Scenes and Sequels, you'll discover: practical definitions of scenes and sequels, the components of scenes and sequels, how scenes and sequels compare to other passages of writing, the nuances of using each, practical examples of how to use scenes and sequels, prototype scenes and sequels, how to control the pace of your fiction, how to troubleshoot a manuscript with scene-and-sequel analysis, and much, much more.
Why spend countless hours doing your own research? Scenes and Sequels: How to Write Page-Turning Fiction is a treasure of straightforward, practical information that you can use immediately. Unlock your full writing potential with Scenes and Sequels today!

From the Author
I grew up on a farm in Kansas, and as an adult I was Scoutmaster for my sons' Boy Scout troop. My writing tends to include nature and the rough-and-tumble life or fantasies of a young person. Sometimes my stories get more than a little earthy, but they are just as likely to touch on science, politics, or philosophy. My hobby is writing books: fiction and books about writing fiction. I publish a free, online newsletter, For Fiction Writers, about the craft of writing fiction. For more information, see mikeklaassen.com
About the Author
Award-winning author Mike Klaassen began writing fiction when his sons were teenagers. His first two books were young-adult action-adventure novels influenced by his experience as a Kansas farm boy and as a Scoutmaster. A visit to the site of the Battle for New Orleans led Mike to write Backlash: A War of 1812 Novel, featuring five young Americans in the fight of their life. Ongoing research encouraged Mike to write books about the craft of writing fiction. The use of folktales as examples in his nonfiction books inspired him to begin Klaassen's Classic Folktales, a collection of ancient stories retold as novellas.
