Writing from Within Workbook

by Bernard Selling

Bernard Selling, author of Writing from Within and a writing instructor for over 30 years, helps people get over their initial fear of writing with this new spiral-bound Writing from Within Workbook. By writing personal stories, people can usually get past misconceptions about how someone should write and learn how to write in a way that feels natural and comfortable. Selling's comprehensive workbook goes through the writing process step by step, including lessons on how to add narrative, inner thoughts and feelings, dialogue, character sketches, and climaxes. Once people are familiar with the basics of writing, they can extend their writing skills into other genres without fear. Selling introduces steps for readers to broaden their writing into screenplays, essays, fiction, and journals. He explains that the fundamentals of writing are the same, despite the different forms. With the ease and skill of an experienced writing teacher, he helps writers transform their work into whichever form they desire. Draft samples show writers how their stories will grow using the Writing from Within method. Selling comments on each draft, thus demonstrating how to evaluate a piece of writing. These personal notes also help keep readers on track and their goals in perspective.
