by Jacqueline FriedlandBottom line? Expect many drafts, and use every tool you’ve got! But let’s get specific. Writing a novel from multiple points of view is like conducting an orchestra. When it works, each character’s voice adds dimension and drama to your story. When it doesn’t, it’s a chaotic mess that leaves readers confused and disengaged. So how do you ensure your ensemble cast sings in harmony rather than simply talking over each other? You plan. You track. You revise. A lot.

I just finished a book. My seventeenth thriller, and I am so happy with it. How did it happen? There’s an emotional road to writing a book, isn’t there?

What if we added a weekend in a gorgeous mansion, voluptuous food, and the camaraderie and support from other writers? Still no?
