Description

In Sometimes the Magic Works, Ny Times-Bestselling author Terry Brooks shares his strategies for creating unusual, memorable fiction. Spanning topics from the significance of dreaming for the requirement of writing a plan, from the art work of displaying in the place of simply informing to creating credible characters who make readers care what goes on for them, Brooks draws upon their own experiences, challenging lessons learned, and pleasant discoveries produced in creating the precious Shannara and Magic Kingdom of Landover series, The Term and The Void trilogy, and the best-selling Star Wars novel The Phantom Menace.In addition to being fully a writing manual, Sometimes the Magic Works is Terry Brooks’s self portrait of the performer. “If you don’t believe there's magic written down, you likely won’t create something enchanting,” says Brooks. This guide provides a rare chance to look in to the mind of (and learn a trick or two from) among dream fiction’s preeminent magicians.
