A Word From The Author

"Literary/commercial fiction is the Holy Grail of every editor. To publishers it’s black ink. For booksellers it’s pure joy. Reading groups embrace these novels, as do librarians, reviewers, teachers, award committees and movie producers.

For me, though, literary/commercial fiction is a forecast of where fiction is heading in the 21st Century. It’s an approach to novel writing that eschews both snobby pretense and genre dogma. It is personal, impassioned and even downright quirky, yet through its rebellious refusal to please it paradoxically achieves universal appeal. It panders to no one. It speaks to everyone. My purpose in writing this book is to uncover its secrets and make its methods a part of every novelist’s working practice.

Whether your purpose is literary or commercial, regardless of your aim to enlighten or entertain, no matter whether you want to give readers what they want or explore and push boundaries, there are techniques you can take from high impact fiction to enrich yours. After all, it’s a new century. Everything is changing and fiction is too. Keeping up is okay but better still is to zoom ahead of the curve. In these pages I’ll show you how to do that." — Donald Maass
