Story coach Lisa Cron has spent her career discovering why these methods don't work and coming up with a powerful alternative, based on the science behind what our brains are wired to crave in every story we read (and it's not what you think).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Story Genius Cron takes you, step-by-step, through the creation of a novel from the first glimmer of an idea, to a complete multilayered blueprint-including fully realized scenes-that evolves into a first draft with the authority, richness, and command of a riveting sixth or seventh draft.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lisa Cron","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":43182144979187,"sku":"9781607748892","price":26.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/4284\/5939\/products\/9781607748892.jpg?v=1662198863","url":"https:\/\/www.harryhartog.com.au\/products\/story-genius-lisa-cron-9781607748892","provider":"Harry Hartog Bookseller","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
