Books Descriptions
Writers know that their characters and stories should be multi-
layered and believable. Now here's a simple workbook that uses
the same knowledge that gives therapists insight into human
behaviour to create fiction that hits the mark. Each chapter
outlines an aspect of psychological theory as it can be used
for writing and provides two worksheets to translate it into
action - one to develop characters, one to develop the story.
Darian Smith is a prize winning fiction writer with a degree in
psychology, a Diploma of Counselling, and is a member of the
New Zealand Association of Counsellors. He combines these two
sides of his background to provide simple, easy to follow tools
that make use of established psychological theory to help
writers develop fully rounded, interesting, realistic
characters and inject conflict into their stories. Give your
writing the benefit of over a decade of training and experience
and discover how to have readers wanting more.
