The Craft Workbook Bundle

The three craft workbooks together: The Plot Workbook, The Character Workbook, and The World Building Workbook. Each takes one part of a novel and works it at depth, with worked examples, six case studies, forty worksheets, and a set of reference pages. They share one design, and each points to the others where the work crosses over: a character's choice that has to drive the plot, a world that has to press on the people in it.

Work through them in any order. Start with the part of the book that feels thinnest, and come back to the others as the draft asks for them.
