"Great books start with Great Ideas, and become finished published stories with a little help from our friends...The Three Wise Guides! "HOW TO WRITE YOUR BOOK, From an Idea...to Your Published Story," as narrated by "The Three Wise Writing Guides," is a journey into the exciting world of writing and finishing a book. An instructional writing book can be very dry and boring, and can take longer to digest than writing your own book. That's why, "How to Write Your Book...," takes the reader on an interactive journey with our guides: the Writer, Ms. Iwanna B. Writer, the smart old owl; the Editor, Ms. Edi Tor, a fox with a fountain pen; and the Publisher, Mr. I.M. Publisher, a very classy, successful, English type dog-gent. These guides deliver cartoon type conversations from their professional prospective, which will motivate anyone who wants to write, to actually start and finish their book. "Writing is a hard enough task, but taking that 'gem' of an idea and spinning it into the most exciting 'best-seller' ever, makes it even harder. Writers want the 'how to, ' and the 'DO IT NOW'! And that's the premise behind, 'HOW TO WRITE YOUR BOOK...' "We devised just twelve, yes that's right, 12, Chapters, chock full of let's get you writing and finishing your story. This concept was developed from the authors' experiences as teachers, editors, publishers and published authors. "From writing workshops and interactive seminars that we conducted, we heard first-hand that these writers had been unable to take their ideas from the seedling stage to the finished story. Their great story ideas would pop-up, then ultimately fizzle just from the task of getting those ideas down on paper. But the saddest part of their stories were that eventually, the long, arduous process took their work from their writing instrument of choice to the 'never to be seen again, bottom drawer'. "Once we simplified their methods, those writers were better able to understand the process, overcome their obstacles and set realistic goals. They stayed on track and were motivated to complete their projects. "We saw the quality of their work improve. They were able to keep writing; knew what to do next, and were able to overcome their writing road blocks. When they followed our step-by step process they were able to see their writing projects through to completion." This book was also used in the actual creation of a currently published novel, "Code 47 to BREV Force." The "HOW TO WRITE...," Chapter Review Maps, show how each of the suggested techniques benefitted the story line, and give the writer the instructions for using these tools to work through their story. Madry and Barish-Stern filled this book with their writing journeys': as authors of numerous books in many different genre, as editors of hundreds of books, from their experiences with publishing, and from the experiences of many of their colleagues, who are also published authors. Their years of teaching classes and one-on-one tutoring, also gave Madry and Barish-Stern the ability to pinpoint the issues that presented to a cross section of writers. "HOW TO WRITE YOUR BOOK," has been put together with all of these things in mind; to be, informative, interactional, thought-provoking, and a fun way for any writer to achieve their dream of writing a book, ..."from an idea to your published story."
