Download Sometimes the Magic Works: Lessons from a Writing Life AudioBook Free
In Sometimes the Magic Works, New York Times best-selling writer Terry Brooks stocks his secrets for creating strange, memorable fiction. Spanning topics from the value of daydreaming to the need of writing an overview, from the fine art of displaying instead of merely revealing to creating believable character types who make visitors care what goes on to them, Brooks pulls after his own activities, hard lessons learned, and wonderful discoveries made in creating the precious Shannara and Magic Kingdom of Landover series, The Word and the Void trilogy, and the best-selling Legend Wars book The Phantom Menace. Not only is it a writing guide, Sometimes the Magic Works is Terry Brooks' self-portrait of the musician. "Unless you think there is magic in writing, you probably won't write anything magical," says Brooks. This book offers a exceptional opportunity to peer into the head of (and find out a strategy or two from) one of fantasy fiction's preeminent magicians.
