I believe that for most writers, the way not to get read/sell your book is:

1. Don’t have a good idea.

2. Don’t translate good idea into a good story with interesting characters.

3. Point of view.

Point of view is your voice as a writer. There are writers who have such a good point of view, they can write about pretty much anything and people would want to read it.

It also one of the most difficult topics to teach. I hope this slideshare helps a little bit.

We have one slot left for our Writing At Scenic Workshop on 23–24 September. We’ll do a 20% discount if you mention this blog post!
