Writing Craft: Lessons for the Working Fiction Writer is DeAnna Knippling, a freelance writer, ghostwriter, editor, and book designer. They have ghostwritten over 50 books since 2013, from nonfiction to horror, mystery, science fiction, fantasy, suspense, thriller, adventure, romance, and more, plus their own work. They offer a series of posts meant to help writers who are: Done with one or more works of fiction. Past the beginning stages of their craft but who feel like they are stalling out. Not getting published (or not getting published as quickly as they want). Having difficulty finding more challenging materials to help them improve their craft, having “read it all.” Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice. This series will not cover all possible topics of use for all possible working writers! What it will cover are some major points that must be addressed for the first time or re-addressed and redefined by writers who have passed the beginning stages of writing. The underlying principle behind this series is: If you’ve made it this far, then you’re a decent storyteller. You don’t need anyone to tell you what you should or shouldnt do. What you need is advice on how to get away with what you really want to do. Not all advice will work for every person; whatever doesnt work for you should be tossed, inelegantly, in the trash. Other books will have to cover worldbuilding, genre tropes, and other areas of concern to working writers. And they realize that their advice won’t be for everyone. The plan is to gather the posts into “books” covering separate topics, and when the entire series is complete, publishing them as a collected volume. They are DeAnna Knippling, a freelance writer, ghostwriter, editor, and book designer.
