The NORTAV Method for Writers

- The Secret to Constructing Prose Like the Pros

Bag om The NORTAV Method for Writers

You've mastered plot. You've mastered characterization. You have an amazing story to tell and a flair for language. Yet your prose remains unclear, awkward, and unprofessional. And you're not alone. For years writers have struggled with the single most important aspect of their craft: Prose Construction. Why? Because no how-to book, or writing workshop, or university covers this topic in detail. Until now... The NORTAV Method is a breakthrough approach for learning to recognize and construct clear, accurate, professional quality prose. If you're a new writer and would like to shave years off your learning curve, or if you're an experienced writer and would like to sharpen your writing skills through a more complete understanding of prose construction, try The NORTAV Method today! With The NORTAV Method you'll learn to: Construct the three types of prose used in all writing; Design unlimited unique writing styles; Create patterns for using one or more writing styles in your work; Perform a NORTAV Analysis-a powerful new tool for deconstructing, examining, and revising prose. "An innovative project crossing the border from narrative theory to the hands-on practice of story writing. The author's close reading of narrative passages sheds considerable light on narrative styles. I can foresee the NORTAV Method generating illuminating discussions at conferences on narrative theory as well as being used in courses on creative writing." -MANFRED JAHN, Professor of English (ret.), University of Cologne, and author of Narratology: A Guide to Narrative Theory "By demonstrating how research on stories and storytelling can be leveraged for practical, pedagogical purposes in the writing classroom, Abbiati's book is a significant contribution to the field of narrative studies itself." -DAVID HERMAN, Distinguished Professor of English, The Ohio State University, and author of Storyworlds: A Journal of Narrative Studies
