Description
Reading your favorite novel is like having its author as your own personal writing coach. That's because a good writer puts everything he knows about his craft on every page he writes. And that knowledge is fully available to you, once you've trained your eyes to see what's on those pages -- and what isn't.
In Gunrunner Moon, two homeschooled teenagers run afoul of an international crime ring as they race to discover what became of a Confederate smuggler's lost fortune.
And in a twenty-five lesson companion guide, Lessons in Novel-Writing, Ed Ditto uses the text of Gunrunner Moon to open the eyes of students to the techniques successful authors use to work their magic.
Each lesson includes practical writing exercises designed not only to teach aspiring authors the fundamentals, but also to give them a head start on working some magic themselves. At the conclusion of the course students will have a new understanding of the principles of good writing - and they'll be putting that knowledge to work in a novel of their own.
