“How to Get Better reviews for Your First Novel: 11 Convos on the Basics of Fiction Writing for New Self-publishing Authors” is the book for you.

In eleven candid one-on-one ‘convos’ (conversations), Harold A. Bascom (novelist and reviewer of self-published fiction) serves up eleven pocket-size how-to articles that will help you:

  • To find developmental editing—the most important kind of editing your manuscript will need—for free.

  • To use your five human senses to create mind-blowing descriptive scenes.

  • To choose the most effective voice (or Point of View) to tell your story.

  • To find clichés in your writing and how to replace them with original substitutes.

  • To manipulate active and passive sentences for dynamic paragraphs.

  • To use your life story and turn it into a novel everyone—not only your family and friends—would care to read.

  • And so much more.

In this book, Bascom revisits fiction-writing basics and offers you clear guidelines with detailed examples along the way. This title will help you produce a sharp manuscript destined to become a solid novel or short story collection.

By the end of this book, you will have a solid grasp on writing fiction to take you to the end of your first novel with confidence and self-assuredness.

Harold A. Bascom is the author of the novel, “APATA: The Story of a Reluctant Criminal,” published by Heinemann Educational Books of London.
