Is your novel losing the plot? Sometimes we can be too close to a story to see clearly. If you find you begin to change the plot midway or struggle to think of one at all, this audiobook deals specifically with keeping you on track to create compelling plot outlines your readers will love. Outlining is an invaluable tool for a writer. It helps the author to not feel confined by working to a plot summary and instead demonstrates how, by following best practices, such a framework can liberate the writer to new levels of creativity. This concise guide also reveals the way to use an outline for those writers who prefer the story to be revealed to them. Both methods help to drive the narrative and create twists and surprises that will captivate your audience. Marsh establishes a blueprint for both fiction and nonfiction novels and gives useful examples while considering the strengths and weaknesses of each method. Arranged simply and effectively, this guide is divided into four concise and easy-to-listen-to sections that will bring about fast results. These are: "The Basics of Making an Outline" - considers the flow of ideas, how to present characters effectively against a developing story line, and the way to refine major schemes and subplots that drive the story forward. "Fiction Outline" - practical methods that inspire ideas in different ways to help the sequencing of events unfold in a story and keep sight of the key points. "Non-Fiction Outline" - four methods to arrange facts and research in a way that will not leave any gaps in the reader’s understanding. "Best Practices" - tips to get to know your characters and story more deeply so your reader will be fully absorbed in the novel. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Erin Fossa.

How to Write a Logline to Increase Sales: Everything an Author Should Know but Wasn’t Told About Loglines for Nonfiction and Fiction Books , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 226min
How to Write a Logline to Increase Sales is considered a must-have for authors in the publishing industry. The reason - to grab the attention of potential readers, you must present your novel or book in a complete marketing package which includes the logline. A powerful, attention-grabbing logline aids to increase the sale potential of your book, which means more royalties.Dr. Carol Michaels, CEO of Absolute Author Publishing House, said, “When authors can’t narrow what their book is about in one sentence, it makes me question the rest of their manuscript. I always ask authors to submit a minimum of five different loglines because it tells me a lot about their writing style, and I learn about the book. Readers are no different. That’s how important a powerful logline is.”Too often, authors can’t move from their concept that takes up hundreds of pages in their manuscript to a single sentence. When asked, “What is your book about?” authors often stammer and begin the answer by describing either the character or the plot. That’s not ideal as the message you’re trying to deliver becomes a jumbled mess. Without an attention-getting logline, your book will be swimming with sharks in the middle of the ocean without a chance to grab reader’s attention. When this happens, your sales plummet.Do you want to increase the sales of your book? Of course, you do. Do you have trouble writing an attention-grabbing logline? If you said, “yes”, this audiobook is for you. Written by a number one New Release Amazon author, the information in this audiobook guides an author in writing a compelling logline. Don’t miss your chance and opportunity to increase your book’s revenue and get your copy today.From the number one New Release Author, Dr. Melissa Caudle. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Business English Writing: Effective Business Writing Tips and Tricks that Will Help You Write Better and More Effectively at Work , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 203min
Everyone wants to know the “who-what-when-where-why-how-how much” immediately, in the first sentence. They need to make decisions. When they read documents, they want to know the important things immediately. They want to know objectives, means of measurement, costs, and returns on those investments. They want to see that information in the first sentences. Good business writing is more about clear thinking than it is about writing style. Writing can only be as good as the thinking that precedes it. You must know what you want to say, what your objective is in saying it, and why it’s important for your audience to read it. Organizing a writing project is very similar to organizing a presentation. The good writer is just as aware of his/her audience as a good public speaker is.After you have organized and outlined the subject of your memo, report, or letter, you should have a clear idea of your main focus. Focus in your business report or memo is your objective - it is the “why” of why you are bothering to write at all. Most business writing has its purpose buried. There is no focus, no goal, no call for action, and no desired end result. If you do not provide the focus, you force your reader to ask questions about your message which you should have answered before sitting down at your word processor.Knowing your audience will help you to organize your material so that it has the best chance of being read and understood. Put yourself in your reader’s shoes - listen, and you will be better received. This book will show you how to write business messages clearly, concisely and simply. It will encourage you to write conversationally, the way you talk, and to write with humanity; that is, from one person to another. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Shawntay Fields.

Words and phrases that I hope will convey mood and humor. It was fascinating to hear them spoken aloud and see how Nick interpreted them. He got the message spot on.

The Sacred Sunday Words of Wisdom Journal: Featuring Aloha Friday’s “Hawaiian Words of Wisdom” and “Sacred Sunday’s Scriptural Quotes” for 365 Days , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 175min
It was on July 4th of 2008, I found an up and coming social media website called Facebook. I registered for my first Facebook homepage account and within 30 days had composed a page featuring my “Hawaiian words of wisdom” sayings. I immediately began receiving hundreds of likes and encouraging comments to my new page, which inspired me to begin another new page entitled, “Sacred Sunday Words of Wisdom”. This page would feature my collection of writings and quotations, which I would feature to my many friends on Facebook and then on Twitter, another social media site, posted early each Sunday morning. These early creations have been published regularly on both Fridays and Sundays ever since 2008 and are the source and inspiration for this book. Each Friday, I had posted one of my Hawaiian Words of Wisdom Quotations in both Hawaiian with the English translation. Each Sunday, I had posted one of my very favorite scriptural quotations occasionally with a comment or personal prayer attached. The other days of the week were inspired primarily by my own personal quotations that I had published in my personal newsletter entitled, “The Sacred^Sunday Journals” which went out weekly to over 6,000 subscribers along with my Sunday postings on social media. This new book publication offers daily inspiration and features what are called “The fruits of the Holy Spirit” quotations. It also features the author's "Hawaiian words of wisdom" as well as “Sacred Sunday's scriptural quotations" for 365 days, a full year. They are presented as daily reminders or what may be called “The inspirational word for the day”, Daily "word stone images" are also posted to keep the reader’s attention focused upon those spiritual attributes in each soul’s consciousness that may be reflected upon each day of ordinary time for each individual soul’s lifetime journey. The Sacred Sunday Words of Wisdom Journal begins on a Sunday with day 1 and ends on a Sunday with day 365. My sincer ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael William AngelOh.
