As one reviewer puts it, "This is not a book about how to write great dialogue or develop charismatic characters (even though there are tips on how to get some of this accomplished). This book is a blueprint, the scene by scene layout of your novel's plot structure.... detailed as stating the order in which the first 15 scenes (called sections) need to occur and what characters need to appear in those scenes and what in general terms need to happen."

Have a Happy Thanksgiving, and a successful month of writing!
Hi everyone. Just posting a quick note because I will not be at the next meeting. I am actually going up to a Grub Street seminar on "Plotting the Novel" (I kind of didn't realize it was the same night. Oops.) But I will take good notes and promise to share!
