There are books that address character creation and others that help you craft believable dialogue. Some help you be more creative and others teach you how to attract the attention of agents and editors. The Writer's Little Helper helps you with all of these things and more!

Packed with valuable advice, new ideas and time-saving tips, checklists, and easy-to-read charts, it's sure to become the one book you reach for again and again.

The Writer's Little Helper has been designed to appeal to writers who want to start at the beginning and work toward the end as well as those who feel the need to focus on one area at a time.

Smith packs each line with commonsense advice you may not have thought to use before.

The plot tool on first identifying the high points of your story and then filling in rest is a terrific way to organize your story's structure. I do it with sticky notes on a large piece of paper: one color for the plot points and another color for the other scenes.
