Synopsis
Want to write novels that feel real enough to the reader to have been ripped from the headlines, whatever your genre? Think like a journalist. Looking at the questions journalists ask can help you think of the characters and events in your story as real people, whose lives you are recording, just like you were writing memoir or a news article. Approach planning your novel the way a journalist plans out writing a news piece. They figure out what they will need to research for the piece, and decide how they will structure that research into a narrative. They decide on a format for the story's lede (opening designed to draw the reader in) and structure the story to follow up on the questions presented in that lede. They document everything, so that they can verify the accuracy of everything they present. You can do the same for your fiction. This workbook serves as a full self-paced writing course, presenting theory on each aspect of the world/characters you are trying to create - and then offering step-by-step worksheets that allow you to apply what you just learned. The instructional material is designed to give you a basic foundation in creative writing craft so that you understand how to build an effective story using the information you add into the worksheets. Working through the entire collected workbook will give you a comprehensive Story Bible detailing aspects of your plot and characters to give you a reference source for your world - and the expertise on how to use it. The Master Collection gives you access to all five Story Like a Journalist volumes, for a total of over 100 worksheets. Get ready to take a deep dive into your story, its characters and its world. The journalistic planning strategies in the book take you from determining the best protagonist for your story to imbuing your work with meaning. The book walks you through each of these processes: Who? = Character - WHO are these people who've showed up demanding a place in your novel, anyway? You know they have a story to tell, and for some specific reason, you are the writer in the best position to tell it. Approach uncovering character the same way a journalist approaches a profile piece. What? = Premise -- WHAT is this story about? Premise define the heart of your story. You need a keystone to hold onto, so you don't get lost in all the things your story COULD be. Premise is your keystone, and it works like the legend for a road map. Approach refining premise the same way a journalist approaches a news story. When? and Where? = Setting - WHEN and WHERE the heck are your characters? They have to be somewhere, waiting for the story to start. And that place shouldn't be random. Setting makes the story specific, and allows readers to feel like your characters are real people, living real lives in a certain time and place. Approach exploring aspects of your setting the same way a journalist approaches making a documentary. How? and Why? = Plot and Theme - A plot that doesn't build to a theme is hollow, no matter how much excitement you build into the on-page action, there's no substance so the story won't be memorable. A character contemplating a theme without the framework of a plot is drifting, no matter how much she has to say, there's nothing concrete to prove her points or to challenge them. Her ideas just slip away. But when you get HOW and WHY working together, you can build a pattern of events and meaning that will touch our emotions and maybe even change the way we think., Want to write novels that feel real enough to the reader to have been ripped from the headlines, whatever your genre? Here's a Master Collection Textbook/Workbook that can help.The Story Like A Journalist series combines journalistic planning strategies and novel writing theory into a systematic workbook that takes you from determining the best protagonist for your story to imbuing your work with meaning. There is instructional material that will give you a basic foundation in creative writing craft so that you understand how to build an effective story with the information you add into the worksheets.The Master Collection with give you access to all six volumes, plus references to related material in the other books.Story Like a Journalist Vol 1 - Think Like a Journalist to Build Your Novel's Story BibleStory Like a Journalist Vol 2 - WHO Relates to Your Novel's CharactersStory Like a Journalist Vol 3 - WHAT Relates to Your Novel's Story PremiseStory Like a Journalist Vol 4 - WHEN and WHERE Relate to Your Novel's Setting and WorldbuildingStory Like a Journalist Vol 5 - HOW and WHY Relates to Your Novel's Plot and ThemesThis Master Collection Workbook gives you over 100 worksheets.--Hemmingway worked as a newspaper journalist before he became a fiction writer. E.B. White did a stint at the New Yorker. L.M. Montgomery was a reporter in Halifax before tackling Anne of Green Gables. Margaret Mitchell got her start as a reporter for the Atlanta Journal Sunday Magazine. What these writers have in common: an excellent sense of character, and the ability to write clean prose that clearly puts forwards the characters' goals and motivations. This ability may well come from having mastered the journalistic art, which emphasizes creating a sound story that balances logic, research and emotional authenticity.Even if you're working in a purely creative world, you can still use those principles, and learn to organize and research like a journalist, and to ask the questions a journalist asks either before or after you write your story.
