In many ways, we've been telling the same stories, over and over, for the last 2300 years. This book will show you why, and how you can do it too.

For centuries, dramatic writers have relied on Aristotelian principles to write their stories for the screen and stage-the same stories you stream and watch today. But for the first time ever, the timeless principles from Aristotle's esteemed Poetics have been adapted for novelists.

With succinct clarity, novelist Douglas Vigliotti shows you exactly how to write a novel using tried-and-true principles that have been used since antiquity to tell great stories. These principles are the foundation on which any story can be written. Whether you are writing your first or tenth novel, Aristotle for Novelists has something to offer any serious writer of fiction. It is both a challenge to writers to simplify their craft and a no-frills, impassioned outcry for novelists everywhere.
