Deep Point of View (Busy Writer's Guides)

by Marcy Kennedy

Description

Do you want readers to be so caught up in your book that they forget they're reading? Then you need deep POV. Deep POV takes the reader and places them inside of our characters-hearing their thoughts, feeling their emotions, and living the story through them. Compared to other writing styles, it builds a stronger emotional connection between the reader and our characters, creates the feeling of a faster pace, and helps avoid point-of-view errors and telling rather than showing. In Deep Point show more of View, writing instructor and fiction editor Marcy Kennedy brings her years of experience into showing you how to write deep POV. You'll learn specific, practical things you can do immediately to take your fiction to the next level. Each book in the Busy Writer's Guide series is intended to give you enough theory so that you can understand why things work and why they don't, but also enough examples to see how that theory looks in practice. In addition, they provide tips and exercises to help you take it to the pages of your own story, with an editor's-eye view. Most importantly, they cut the fluff so that you have more time to write and to live your life. show less

I am quickly becoming a HUGE fan of Marcy Kennedy's writers' books. Any writer worth their salt never stops working on craft. Marcy has a way of describing things that simply make sense to me. She uses a lot of examples, which I personally need and covers things from various angles. I have recommended her books to any writer friend who'll listen. If you write, you need to grab her books. It's as simple as that.
