Summary
There's more to writing a successful fantasy story than building a unique world or inventing a new type of magic. From the writing of strong, action-packed scenes to the creation of dynamic, multi-dimensional characters, fantasy author Deborah Chester guides novices and intermediate writers through a step-by-step process of story construction. Whether offering tips on how to test a plot premise or survive what she calls the dark dismal middle, Chester shares the techniques she uses in writing her own novels. Examples drawn from both traditional and urban fantasy illustrate her nuts-and-bolts approach to elemental story design.
With a foreword by New York Times best-selling author Jim Butcher, who studied writing in Chester's classes at the University of Oklahoma, The Fantasy Fiction Formula delivers a practical, proven approach to writing fantasy like a pro.

A Superb how to write Fantasy fiction book!!!
An absolutely first class book from start to finish. I have listened to more than a dozen, how to write fiction books, to aid me in my quest to write my fantasy novella for kids. They have all been helpful in one way or another and had invaluable hints and tips, but this book tops them all!
I can't recommend this book enough.
Absolutely brilliant!

half garbage advice, half absolute basics.
I had disagreements with parts of it before, but at chapter 7, I completely lost it. e.g; a man exploding into a room is an excellent descriptor, saying that the door opened quickly and hit the wall is an AWFUL "fix" for the scene! EXPLODING at someone is a perfectly common and extremely vivid action!
