Book excerpt: "...by using a light touch and conversational style Richie Billing has probably produced the seminal work on the subject." -- Charles Remington, Readers Favorite.'A Fantasy Writers' Handbook' provides detailed guidance on the pillars of storytelling, as well as aspects of writing that rarely feature in other books, such as writing fight scenes and world-building. At times the focus shifts away from the technical elements and considers the philosophies behind writing, ways to help you maintain focus, and methods of battling the demons of doubt that forever loom over our shoulders.Section two explores the thriving genre of fantasy and the many facets that make it what it is, before looking at the histories of our world that so often inspire our fantasy tales.The final part looks at the things that come after you've finished your story-formatting, peer reviewing, finding publishers-and other things the contemporary writer can do to enhance their careers, such as making and maintaining a website, blogging, and marketing methods.By the end, you'll have a sound foundation upon which to build as well as the tools to venture on alone with courage and confidence. To reach that point, all you need is a commitment to work hard and the determination to overcome the challenges ahead.
