I get a fair number of requests from people who want advice about non-party politics, for example how to campaign against the closure of local services, how to lobby for money for a project, how to bring an international issue to the attention of press and politicians.
What goes in this section will be answers to the questions I get asked most frequently, written on an occasional basis.
The fruit of a six year project to unlock the perfect plot, The One Basic Plot identifies the plot shape which is found in almost all successful stories, from narrative jokes to three volume novels and from medieval French fairy tales to Hollywood blockbusters. The One Basic Plot is available from Amazon, and comes in the Kindle format which works on iPhones, iPads, Macs, PCs, and, of course, Kindle readers. Price £2.21.
This is a book for writers.
