Due to an expedited global distribution, Depths of Characters: A writer’s resource & workbook for character building by Amy Shannon is currently available on Paperback on Lulu.com and BarnesandNoble.com.
Because of that early distribution, I have just "approved" the paperback on Amazon.com, and should be available by 9/30 (or sooner).
This is my first nonfiction book, and is filled with exercises, examples, information, and resources for writers and how to build characters.
Synopsis:
Amy Shannon is an author, Book Reviewer (Amy's Bookshelf Reviews) and co-host of the podcast "The After Show with McKensie Stewart & Amy Shannon." Amy has written over 108 stories and still has more to come. Most of her stories are fictional dramas featuring strong, female characters, though two of her stories have a male protagonist and main character.
Depths of Characters is meant to be a writer's workbook for character development. Inside, this book provides tips, shares experiences, and gives examples that fit the character categories. Categories include, but are not limited to character names, building character profiles, protagonists and antagonist. This book also contains pages for note-taking, and exercises after each section for the writer to complete.
This book is intended to be a resource, workbook, and writing tool. The end of the book also has a Resource and Reference page.
This book also includes examples from authors such as McKensie Stewart, Melanie Nowak, and Abdiel Leroy. There are also excerpts from classic literature authors, such as Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, Homer, and Dante Alighieri.
"Don’t just write what you know, write what you want to know," -Amy Shannon
Get your copy today. And if you purchase the book, and want an electronic printout, instead of writing in the actual book, there are details in the conclusion of the book.
Once it is available on Amazon, I will write another post with the Amazon.com information
