Story structure is one of the most important concepts for a writer to understand-and ironically, one of the least frequently taught. In this book, \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e-bestselling author William Bernhardt explains the elements that make stories work, using examples spanning from \u003ci\u003eGilgamesh\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eThe Hunger Games\u003c\/i\u003e. In each chapter, he introduces essential concepts in a direct and easily comprehended manner. Most importantly, Bernhardt demonstrates how you can apply these ideas to improve your own writing.\u003cbr\u003e William Bernhardt is the author of more than thirty books, including the blockbuster Ben Kincaid series of legal thrillers and \u003ci\u003eThe Last Chance Lawyer\u003c\/i\u003e. Bernhardt is also one of the most sought-after writing instructors in the nation. His programs have educated many authors now published by major houses. He is the only person to have received the Southern Writers Gold Medal Award, the Arrell Gibson Lifetime Achievement Award, the Royden B. Davis Distinguished Author Award (U Penn), and the H. Louise Cobb Distinguished Author Award (OSU), which is given \"in recognition of an outstanding body of work that has profoundly influenced the way in which we understand ourselves and American society at large.\"\u003cbr\u003e The Red Sneaker Writing Center is dedicated to helping writers achieve their literary goals. What is a red sneaker writer? A committed writer seeking useful instruction and guidance rather than obfuscation and attitude. Red sneakers get the job done, and so do red sneaker writers, by paying close attention to their art and craft, committing to hard work, and never quitting. Are you a red sneaker writer? If so, this book is for you.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Bernhardt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1484024893\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781484024898\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/25\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.31d","brand":"William Bernhardt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43980513673471,"sku":"9781484024898","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_703d2c69-2eb6-40f1-b71a-04391fc2e7ed.jpg?v=1683250333","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/story-structure-william-bernhardt-9781484024898","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
