"I used to think I was good at plotting -- but this past (retreat) weekend made
me realize I've been guilty of a more complicated version of the 'one damned
thing after another' plot.  I'm stunned at how well an entire story arc came
together in just two days.  I'm eager, now, to apply the templates to the books
I've been revising for -- mm -- ever, I think.  I suspect I'll discover I've been
revising the wrong bits for the wrong reasons all this time."
~~ Marcella Burnard, SF/Fantasy writer

“I did, indeed, plot a novel in two days. I didn't really believe that would happen!”
~~ Kaye George – Award-winning short story author

“I used to be a fly by the seat of my pants writer before this course. However,
now I will be organized and stay on track, but I can still be creative at the same

time. I would never have believed it!”
~~ Shannon Jones, pre-published writer

“These writers know their business and, what’s more, know how to explain it.  
Break into Fiction® is solidly grounded in storytelling fundamentals but then
goes much farther into the practical detail that determines whether your book
will bring a check or a rejection slip.”
~~ Jon Franklin, author of Writing for Story and a Pulitzer Prize winner
