Powerful themes are never incidental. They emerge from the conjunction of strong plots and resonant character arcs. This means you can learn to plan and implement theme. In doing so, you will deepen your ability to write not only stories that entertain, but also stories that stay with readers long after the end. Conscious mastery of theme will elevate every story you write and allow you to craft fiction of depth and meaning. Take control of your story via a powerful implementation of theme.

It's every novelist's greatest fear: pouring their blood, sweat, and tears into writing hundreds of pages only to realize that their story has no sense of urgency, no internal logic, and so is a page-one rewrite. The prevailing wisdom in the writing community is that there are just two ways around this problem: pantsing (winging it) and plotting (focusing on the external plot).

That's where The Emotional Craft of Fiction comes in.

Most people think the way to write a best seller is to have a lot of talent and even more luck.

A best-selling author himself, and the author of the number-one best seller for writers, Plot & Structure, Mr. Bell has been teaching the principles of best-selling fiction for over 20 years, principles that apply to any genre or style.

Imagine knowing what the brain craves from every tale it encounters, what fuels the success of any great story, and what keeps people transfixed. Wired for Story reveals these cognitive secrets - and it's a game-changer for anyone who has ever set pen to paper. The vast majority of writing advice focuses on "writing well" as if it were the same as telling a great story. This is exactly where many aspiring writers fail - they strive for beautiful metaphors, authentic dialogue, and interesting characters, losing sight of the one thing that every engaging story must do.

Great Resource
I purchased this book after author Dan Brown (The DaVinci Code) recommended it in his Masterclass. Weiland has some great guiding questions for getting started and then gets into more concepts/questions for writers who want to create more detailed outlines. I also appreciate the inclusion of the common errors beginning writers tend to make, and suggestions for how to avoid them. The references for additional supporting resources available online are invaluable. I opted to purchase a digital copy of the supporting workbook after listening to this audio. My only wish is that a supporting pdf file was available to help navigate Outlining Your Novel as the audiobook is the kind of resource I will want to revisit in sections as I work through my outline.

Work changing resource!
She completely reversed my position on outlining and by the time I finished this audiobook during my morning commute in the car I had completed an entire outline and first draft of my novel. KM breaks this all down in digestible and inspiring bits. Outlining Your Novel will go on my list of top resources that changed the entire way I work.

Great listen, probably best for "beginners"
What made the experience of listening to Outlining Your Novel the most enjoyable?
Felt like I was having a conversation with the author.
Have you listened to any of Sonja Field’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
First time I've listened to her. She did a great job, so this most likely won't be my last time.
Any additional comments?
Having read a lot of books on writing, there's nothing new here. I'm of the opinion, though, that it doesn't hurt to have these lessons burned into your memory. And the writing and the narration make this such a delightful listen that it was well worth my time.

Great Intro into Why Outlines Help
Liked: the author steps thru a justification for outlining methodically. The interviewer questions were dogmatic in their consistency for each author interviewed. Definitely reaffirming that outlining does not introduce too much differential equations into a creative process. structure is ok.
Dislike: I wish it delved a little more into various types of outlining and planning with more critiques on various planning tools.

Just what I needed!
I have a number of really great books for creating fiction or writing your novel, but this is at the top for really and truly getting started on the right foot thru outlining! I've listened to Miss Weiland in several webinars and I love her style and direction both on the written page and in person. If you don't know where to start your novel start here! I have both the audio and paper back book and workbook!

Doesn't explain how to outline
I really enjoyed the author’s other book “Structuring Your Novel”. It made perfect sense and was well organised.
This book, however, was confusing. Its title promises a book about outlining a novel, but the author never defines what an outline is or what she means when she refers to “an outline”. The closest she comes is to give three examples of non-traditional outlines. And despite paragraph after paragraph on the importance of outlining, she never seems to explain how to actually outline a novel.
She does this sort of thing elsewhere in the book, too. At one point she refers to a novel’s theme and why it’s very important, but never explains what a theme is.
The book does offer a lot of advice that sounds practical and intuitively seems like it should be helpful. But, unlike her other book, this advice seems haphazard. There don’t seem to be clear connections between the topics discussed.
If you’re considering writing a novel, I would still recommend this book to you because, as I’ve said, it does seem to contain helpful information. If you only want to read one book by this author, though, I highly recommend the other one, “Structuring Your Novel”.

Good intro to outlining
Author's description of the value of outlining as a tool to help organize a writer's thought process was helpful, also liked ways to end a scene to keep the reader reading.
I appreciated the author's philosophical approach to outlining which emphasized the importance of planning over plans themselves. And now here are some tools to plan with...
I liked the narrator's engaging voice and style, lively without being overbearing.
I also listened to 'How to structure your novel' by the same author and narrator.
I'm sure I'll listen to both books again and if they did something on Dialogue, I would probably check that out too.
Thank you for reading this review.

A good guide
Good listen and read, plenty of info to mine and a lot of inspiration. The only thing I don't like is being told a time to finish an outline in. To be fair though, she starts the book by saying take what you want and leave the rest.
