Written by Joris Chamberlain. Art and cover by Aurelie Neyret.
Cici dreams of being a novelist. Her favorite subject: people, especially adults. She's been watching them and taking notes. Everybody has one special secret, Cici figures, and if you want to write about people, you need to understand what's hiding inside them. But now she's discovered something truly strange: an old man who disappears into the forest every Sunday with huge pots of paint in all sorts of colors. What is he up to? Why does he look so sad when he comes back?
In a graphic novel interwoven with journal notes, scrapbook pieces, and doodles, Cici assembles clues about the odd and wonderful people she's uncovered, even as she struggles to understand the mundane: her family and friends.

Stop What You're Doing and Write! Yes, You; Write!
Most writing guides imply--or outright state--that there's a fixed, specific formula or list of rules you must follow to achieve writing and publishing success. And all of them are phonies. Well, not completely. There are real, applicable techniques and strategies in any writing reference to help you. But the idea that there's only one way of writing? Nuts!
With unconventional approaches to the craft, fresh angles on novel writing and selling, a healthy dose of humor, and no promise of refunds, Writing Without Rules is for those writers who have tried and tried again--and are ready to success on their own terms.
In these pages, accomplished author Jeff Somers will show you:
• The key to a successful writing career is doing the actual writing, no matter the circumstances.
• Fantastic ideas are available everywhere--you just need to know how to tap into sources through a variety of approaches.
• Important craft aspects that you should focus on, such as characters and dialogue, while spending less time on others, like setting.
• Effective ways to get published--whether it's traditional or self-publishing--and how to supplement your income.
• Whether you're a plotter, a pantser, or somewhere in-between, Writing Without Rules is for those writers who are looking for a fresh take on tackling the challenge of writing and selling a novel, and building a career. As Somers will show you, it's less about being perfect in everything, and more about having the confidence to complete everything.

Craft a Story That Towers Above the Rest
You know it when you read it: In page after page and scene after scene, a truly engrossing novel has qualities that set it apart. Authentic characters, a well-rounded plot, and immersive settings work in harmony to create a three-dimensional experience--one you can practically step inside and explore.
But while you can recognize this work when you read it, writing it can be much more challenging. Bring Your Fiction to Life teaches you how to build a solid narrative structure and layer in lush, textured scenes to create a story that rings true.
You'll learn how to:
o Master the three-dimensional aspects of characters, plots, and settings using detailed sketches that define the past, present, and future aspects of each element.
o Develop complex opening, resolution, and bridge scenes that expertly lead readers through your fictional world.
o Construct and analyze an outline for your manuscript, using tools and techniques to analyze scenes that lack dimensionality.
o Brainstorm, research, and draft efficiently and effectively, and juggle multiple projects with ease.
o Packed with story-development charts, worksheets, and checklists, Bring Your Fiction to Life shows you how to craft a vivid story world that readers will instantly recognize as remarkable.
