Summary

Too many books tell you what you need to do during a round of editing...but they very rarely explain why that need exists. Without explanation and examples to help your understanding, craft basics can feel restrictive and unbearable.You might have already begun writing something you’ve had a great idea for. But a great story requires more than the gift of inspiration. Tell Me A Story takes you through the first steps of what you need to know to write well, and how to improve your editing technique.
 
This book lets you learn with Hows and Whys, through writing examples from real novices. This will allow you to jump into storytelling with solid practices for getting your ideas from your mind to the page.
 
Praise for E.J. Runyon
 
"E.J. has done much more than prove to me that writing is a mosaic skill, worthy of a myriad of effort, but also that it is a sharp-bladed pillow from which we all draw a precise dream." - V. Pittsenbargar
 
“E.J’s done exactly what I wanted and been searching for. Help about storytelling and the English language. Not just as in punctuation and grammar, but about the craft. I wanted to get my readers more engaged in my story. In swoops E.J. to save the day.” - D. Chapman“I'm glad I found E.J., she's a wonderful coach. It's like being a kid getting on a bike for the first time, and realizing what the pedals do. The revisions I'm doing now are helping me tell the story that I want to tell.” - C. Murphy

    Book Summary of "Make It Stick" by Peter C. Brown, Henry L. Roediger III, Mark A. McDanielSummary by FlashBooksABOUT:Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learningby Peter C. Brown, Henry L. Roediger III, Mark A. McDanielMake It Stick is all about the science of successful learning. (Key word: ’science.’) Most of us believe that, in order to learn something, we should make it as simple as possible for ourselves to do so… After all, if we had a choice between two ways to learn the same thing—one hard, the other easy—wouldn’t it make more sense to make use of the easiest way to learn, rather than the more difficult and effortful method of learning? Make It Stick turns traditional ideas like these on their head. Drawing on recent discoveries in cognitive psychology and other disciplines, the authors offer concrete techniques for becoming more productive learners. Perfect for people of all ages and walks of life—from students to moms to fortune 500 hundred CEOs—the big ideas from Make It Stick can be put to use by all of us interested in strengthening our learning skills and applying them both personally and professionally.

    If you’ve been looking for a book about narcissism, you probably already have an idea of what it is. Still, we’ll define it in this book before we start expanding on the intricate details of such a personality. In part, because there are so many myths about it and the term gets tossed around like a diaper into a trash been, while most people don’t realize what it is all about. 
Moreover, there are other aspects of narcissism that need to be addressed. For instance, other personality disorders, such as anorexia nervosa, are sometimes linked to narcissism; and susceptible or vulnerable narcissism is very different from grandiose narcissism. And yet, despite its many unattractive traits, many people are definitely charmed by the charisma of a narcissist. 
These topics are all very fascinating, so please, take the time to study them a bit.
