Want to write a thriller?
Not sure how to create the thrills?
The best way to learn is to study the work of a master. And where better to start than Lee Child’s Killing Floor - the first novel in his bestselling Jack Reacher series?
In Write Like Lee Child, you will discover what it is that makes Lee Child’s novel a highly effective crime thriller.
Thematic chapters will tackle thorny questions such as:
- What makes for an appealing main character?
- Is thriller fiction all about ‘good guys’ and ‘bad guys’?
- How do you create a cast of characters with potential?
- What are the structures that underlie a good story?
- How do you create a mystery that grips readers?
- Why do you need to connect with readers’ beliefs?
- What are the essential skills in a storyteller’s toolkit?
Armed with a host of insights into the workings of a great crime thriller, you will feel much more confident as you approach the task of planning your own novel.
