    Notes:

    We indulge our fascination with detection in many ways, only some of which occur in the detective story. In fact, modern fiction regularly uses elements of a detective narrative to tell another story altogether, to engage characters, narrators, and readers with questions of identity, with examinations of moral and ethical reasoning, with critiques of social and political injustices, and with the metaphysics of meaning itself. Detective plots cross cultural and national boundaries and occur in different ways and different genres. Taken together, they suggest important contemporary understanding

    Preface to the second edition -- Writing a novel -- Introduction -- Book in the mind -- Elements of fiction -- Seeing it through -- Revision -- Interviews: Dorothy Allison -- Larry Brown -- Peter Cameron -- Michael Chabon -- Michael Cunningham -- Robb Forman Dew -- Richard Ford -- Ha Jin -- Patricia Henley -- Charles Johnson -- Wally Lamb -- Valerie Martin -- Jill McCorkle -- Sena Jeter Naslund -- Lewis Nordan -- Sheri Reynolds -- S J Rozan -- Jane Smiley -- Lee Smith -- Theodore Weesner -- Writing exercises

    From the Publisher: Novel Ideas provides a substantial introduction to the elements of fiction followed by in-depth interviews with successful novelists who speak with candor and insight into the complex process by which a novel is made. This edition includes new and updated interviews as well as writing exercises to enhance its use in the writing classroom. Dorothy Allison recalls "deliciously self-indulgent" days of writing in her bathrobe, wrapped in misery and exultation; Peter Cameron explains how he made the move from short fiction to the novel with the aid of a music composer's notebook to track the movement of his characters. Writers as different as Ha Jin, Jill McCorkle, Richard Ford, and Michael Chabon describe their unique approaches to their work while consistently affirming the necessity of committing to the hard effort of it while also remaining open to surprise. Aspiring novelists will find hands-on strategies for beginning, working through, and revising a novel; accomplished novelists will discover new ways to solve the problems they face in process; and serious readers of contemporary fiction will enjoy a glimpse into the way novels are made. Includes interviews with: Dorothy Allison; Larry Brown; Peter Cameron; Michael Chabon; Michael Cunningham; Robb Forman Dew; Richard Ford; Ha Jin; Patricia Henley; Charles Johnson; Wally Lamb; Valerie Martin; Jill McCorkle; Sena Jeter Naslund; Lewis Nordan; Sheri Reynolds; S.

    Introduction : narrative prospecting -- Collocation and corpus stylistics -- Lexical patternings in short stories -- Top keyword sentences as story waymarking -- Keywords and the language of guidance in "The love of a good woman" -- Repetition and para-repetition in story structure -- Prospection and expectation : core signalling -- Prospection and expectation : embedded signalling -- The textual tracking of suspense and surprise -- Next steps

    One of our most valuable capacities is our ability partly to predict what will come next in a text. But linguistic understanding of this remains very limited, especially in genres such as the short story where there is a staging of the clash between predictability and unpredictability. This book proposes that a matrix of narrativity-furthering textual features is crucial to the reader's forming of expectations about how a literary story will continue to its close. Toolan uses corpus linguistic software and methods, and stylistic and narratological theory, in the course of delineating the matrix of eight parameters that he sees as crucial to creating narrative progression and expectation. --From publisher's description

    While the concept of the fictional character has been widely discussed at interdisciplinary level, a foundational theory of character creation is yet to follow. As a result, creative writing students and beginner writers refer to post-construction analysis, as well as the step-by-step advice often suggested by popular writing manuals. Aiming to fill this gap and at the same time reconcile approaches in writing and criticism, this book proposes a theory of character creation based on the in-depth analysis of the concept, as well its place within the narrative. The approach suggested herein consists of two interrelated stages: conceptualisation and exposition. Conceptualisation entails the in-depth understanding of what constitutes the fictional character, as well as the dynamics of its correlation with the reader, the author and its real counterpart, the human person; Exposition refers to the conveyance of such understanding on paper. Viewing creative writing as an art and craft, the author builds her theory on the notion that comprehension of the world and the concept of character itself is an essential prerequisite in order to construct consistent and believable fictional persons. Varotsi also introduces her four stages of creation: Observation, Perception, Empathy and Imagination to inspire a method of work according to which personal craftsmanship and artistry can be successfully combined with pedagogic technique

    "Our meddling intellect misshapes the beauteous forms of things; we murder to dissect," Wordsworth cautioned at the dawning of a new age of science and technology. It is a caution that, in addition to applying to the study of art and nature, might also apply to our investigation of the creative process, which has engaged the meddling minds of many. ... the process involved in literary creation, in particular, has fascinated many ordinary people, as well as a great many psychologists and philosophers, from Plato on ... The variety of approach and style in Writing Fiction and Poetry extends

    Writing the Novel -- The Liar's Bible -- The Liar's Companion

    A special three-in-one edition of four-time Edgar Award winner Lawrence Block's definitive collections on the art of writing fiction: Writing the Novel, The Liar's Bible, and The Liar's Companion In Writing the Novel, Lawrence Block, the crown prince of suspense writing, offers neither tricks nor formulas, but straightforward advice based on the experience that comes with publishing more than one hundred books. He explains how to refine an idea, how to study one's chosen genre, and how to use the novel's expansive form to find one's particular voice. And he tells it all in the easy, immediate style that has made his own work so successful. The Liar's Bible collects, for the first time, ten years' worth of Block's writing expertise as originally published in his monthly column for Writer's Digest. Each essay illuminates the tricks of the authorial trade, from creating vibrant characters and generating seamless plots, to conquering writer's block and experimenting with self-publishing. Filled with wit and insight, this is a must-read for experts, amateurs, and anyone interested in learning to craft great fiction from one of the field's modern masters. And in The Liar's Companion, more of Lawrence Block's hard-won wisdom from his monthly column in Writer's Digest is brought together in one enlightening collection, covering such topics as creating a fresh story, delivering a powerful ending, adapting books for the screen, and deciding when to make the switch to full-time writer
