"The task of a writer
consists of being able to make something out
of an idea." -Thomas Mann
You
have the imagination. You can find story ideas
everywhere: in people and scenes from everyday
life, in the news, in your musings. Right now,
your characters are waiting to act and speak.
And you know you have the flair for words to
bring them to life. But effective fiction needs
more than style and imagination. Your stories
need believable characters with meaningful problems,
sensual settings, and gripping plots, all seamlessly
woven together, in order to entertain and move
your audience. Now there's a tool to help. StoryBuilder
lends structure to your premise, and
helps you build a solid foundation for your
story. You can write faster, easier, and better.
Best of all, it's fun. Mistakes aren't costly,
and false starts won' t fill your waste basket.
You're free to change and revise, to take chances,
and to experiment- to find the story only you
can tell.
