Book excerpt: One of the hardest things in the world to accomplish is getting a book written. This manual describes a methodology adapted from well-tried business principles and has been used with great success in schools, both senior and primary, with seniors' classes and with informal groups. It will get you over the hurdles of developing a plot, creating powerful characters and controlling the process right through to the magical moment when you write "The End" on the final page. It is not a regular "creative writing" manual but a methodology to get a book developed and written.ABOUT THE AUTHOR: The author Michael Davies is a retired IT executive with a writing career spanning two decades. He has a Masters Degree in Business Administration and is the founder of the Mickie Dalton Foundation, a literary funding organization for writers. Since 2002, he has lived in New South Wales.
