Telling Stories With Spark: Creating Irresistible Stories (When the World Doesn't Seem to Give a S**t) Kindle Edition

4.7 out of 5 stars 7 ratings

If you're looking for a way to get your audience to pay attention to your fictional or personal stories, you've found it. This book helps you write so that people find your stories irresistible.
In this book you'll get to the heart of how humans are hard-wired to respond to stories above other kinds of language, and what makes a good story work.
It teaches you where you've been going wrong with the way you write your action, helping you really understand the difference between showing and telling. You'll find out what that old saying 'Show Don't Tell' really means, when broken down properly. You will also have the tricky matter of character dialogue untangled for you, and get some hands-on writing challenges to complete.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fab book
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 16, 2021
    Perfect book for new writers. Explanations are clear with sound advice to improve your writing. Highly recommended.
  • Peter
    4.0 out of 5 stars It's all in the title.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 12, 2019
    I would not have clicked otherwise; the title stood out amongst other offers and caught my attention. After previewing the introduction, I was sold. Inside is flat out honesty and a simple, yet effective reminder of the power of 'Show don't tell'. A few more exercises available straight from the book to really drive home the point/benefit of implementation would be great.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Practical and clear
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 13, 2018
    The author gives you the do's and dont's in a clear manner, with concrete examples to help you assimilate the information. Very good for beginners who have no idea what to look for and what to avoid. Very useful.
