What if I told you that for every story problem you encounter there is a solution? What if I told
you a novel plan could help you find it? - Give your
characters depth and passion.
- Fix problems with plot,
structure, and pacing.
- Ensure your settings are accurately
depicted.
- Uncover and develop your theme.
Plan Well, Write
Well: The secret to crafting your best plots, characters, and settings can help you achieve all of these tasks. I know that it can, because
the techniques I've laid out in this new e-book enabled me to fix my story problems and finish my novel. Not only that, they saved my
writing career when I had just about given up. When
I was younger I had written draft after draft of my first novel, getting no farther than the first chapter before losing my
way. I had never heard of plot outlines, and so my plot floundered without structure or purpose. It was truly a frustrating time, because I knew
I had a story in me. I just didn't know how to execute it on paper. Finally I decided to write down my plot points on notecards so I could see where I was hitting a dead-end. This began
a love for freewriting, for brainstorming, for seeking answers outside of the draft so less time is wasted on rewriting. And I did not stop there. I used various forms of outlining
for every single aspect of my novel. I could not have written my novel without these techniques,
and it is my great pleasure to share them with you as well. Plan Well, Write Well: The secret to crafting your best plots, characters, and settings will
help you freewrite your way to a completed manuscript. Your plot will be more engaging, your settings will be richer,
and your characters will breathe on the page.

Testimonials
Here's what Elizabeth Lyon, the
author of six books for writers on all aspects of writing, revision, and marketing, had to say:
"Freelance book editor, Cheri Lasota (Stirling
Editing), has taken all the frowns and fiddling out of the process of planning a novel and replaced them with quick, valuable,
and FUN techniques I wish I had known when I began writing fiction. Don't be a fool! Access your inner Einstein and download
this book!"
Charity
Heller Hogge, a 10-year veteran of fiction editing, shares these words:
"What
great advice . . . and in an easy-to-swallow format/style! Your sweet, engaging style makes the bitter medicine of outlining
(disclosure: I'm a 'hater') go down easily.
"I found your "elements to explore" (page 7) to be particularly helpful; you provide examples of character
traits and examine how they fit into the plot. I found myself naturally questioning my own characters' motivations and
working it into my outline. I appreciated how you tied the exploration of character to the crafting of plot: characters'
motivation drives plot! If you know one, you can write the other! Touche. "The words 'It doesn't matter if it will never go in the novel. The reader is meant only to see a small
portion of the writer's research' really stuck with me. That's a reminder that I need to hear again and again!
Your discussion of the necessity to research setting was valuable. "Overall,
I found the book full of helpful and inspiring ideas, and most important (to me, anyway), permissive. I wouldn't hesitate
to recommend it to anyone."
"I read the book last night and became inspired!
A real page turner; not long in quantity but long in substantive, valuable insights and tools."
