This is straight on my "to read" list!
I am delighted to announce that beloved science-fiction author Ben Bova’s unfinished manuscript, “Pluto: The Dark World,’ will be coming from Tor/Forge Books in 2025! I was selected by the estate of the late Ben Bova to complete his last novel, the final entry in his planet series. In the days and months since, I vividly recalled working with Ben on our previous collaboration, “Rescue Mode.” Ben could write believable and entertaining fiction. He was an inspiration, and it is to him that we all owe a great deal. In my treatment of his manuscript, which was sadly far from finished, I strove to give readers a fitting and satisfying conclusion to his Grand Tour/Planet series – of which Ben I hope would approve. With occasional advice and input from Lloyd McDaniel, Ben’s longtime friend and webmaster, I crafted what I think is a story that is fun, interesting, and, above all, ‘Bova-like.” (Fingers crossed!) Student of human nature, newspaperman, technical writer to the early Space Age at the highest level, editor of pulp and ‘slick,’ but mostly and forever an author, Ben Bova was like no other.

Here's an excerpt from today's post at NovelMasterClass: "James Scott Bell, in Plot & Structure: Techniques and exercises for crafting a plot that grips readers from start to finish writes that structure “is what assembles the part of a story in a way that makes them accessible to readers.” He further states that structure “is about timing—where in the mix the elements (of plot) go.” John Dufresne, author of Storyville: An Illustrated Guide to Writing Fiction, says plot is about causality—this happened, and so this happened, etc. Without the causality piece, we just have an episodic work—this happened, and this happened, and this happened, but there is no relationship between any of the events. So, plot is about causality, and structure is about how we, as authors, put our words/chapters/sections/whatever together so that the plot (and other elements of our fictive work) make sense to the reader." https://lnkd.in/gbsiYana #authors #amwritingmystery #amwritingfantasy #booktok #writingtipsandtricks #writersofig #authorsofinsta

Storyteller Extraordinaire - weaver of words, sorcerer of stories, and magician of myths.
New blog on my Edta Tales website: All the world's a stage... Greetings mythics! I’ve been asked to be on a fantasy panel with other fellow fantasy writers for the upcoming Herts Book Festival (18th and 19th May) and the theme is World Building. I’ve always loved this aspect of writing and in fantasy, along with Sci-fi and Horror, world building is crucial. It’s obvious to say if you are writing a contemporary novel then it’s pretty much a given that your readers will know about the environment the book is set in. Even if it’s set in a different country, the laws of physics, of nature, of the environment are the same so the writer doesn’t have to spend time explaining these aspects. They follow the known facts about the real world we live in (we could go down the rabbit hole of what is ‘real’ and what isn’t, but we’ll save that for another day!). What is world building? Check out the rest of my blog to find out. www.edratales.com/blog#/
