Because the members of this Substack are so awesome, I decided to send them one of my nonfiction eBooks or audiobooks for authors every month until I run out of stuff to send. Here’s the list of the books I’ll be sending in the coming months if you’re curious about what’s on the horizon. (Most have audio versions, too.)
Members will get my entire “for-authors” catalog if they remain members, delivered at a rate of one book or audiobook per month. Click here to become a member if you’d like to start getting them.
Becoming a member is cheap, and in addition to the books/audiobooks, you’ll also get all the members-only stuff listed here, including my mostly-weekly One-Drink Book Club podcast, which is full of great info for authors.
The member book for May, 2024 is the eBook version of The One With all the Writing Advice.
This one’s fun. It’s writing lessons learned from the TV show Friends.
Here’s the Amazon description:
Every writer wants to create timeless, memorable stories and characters who feel like real friends.
The masterclass is no further away than your TV.
Classic television holds up because of one thing: great writing. Fancy sets, innovative effects, or famous actors come and go over time, but well-written characters we connect with stand the test of time.
No show in recent history has done that better than the 90’s classic Friends. It's a ten-year study in complex intertwining relationships between six very different people who, no matter what, will be there for each other.
Follow along with bestselling authors Johnny B. Truant and Sean Platt as they examine definitive episodes of the TV classic Friends, sharing the lessons that every novelist, from aspiring to experienced, can apply to create believable characters and develop story arcs that will captivate their readers from start to finish.
