Randy Ingermanson's Secrets to Great Novel Writing

You may have heard of Randy Ingermanson. He's dubbed The Snowflake Guy, because he created a way to write your novel using "the snowflake method". Many published authors use and love this method of novel writing, including Camy Tang, Jill Eileen Smith, and Jeanette Hanscome. Randy is a sought-after conference speaker and is highly respected in the publishing world.

Here's a little bit more about Randy:

Randy earned a Ph.D. in physics at U.C. Berkeley, which is a wretchedly lame excuse for people to call him " America's Mad Professor of Fiction Writing," but life isn't always fair. He is the award-winning author of six novels and one non-fiction book.

Randy publishes the world’s largest electronic magazine on the craft of writing fiction, the FREE monthly Advanced Fiction Writing E-zine. His ultimate goal is to become Supreme Dictator for Life and First Tiger and to achieve Total World Domination.


Now, here's some great news for you! Randy has taken all of his wisdom from years of experience in novel writing and created two ebooks for writers. Fiction 101 and Fiction 201 offer valuable information on the writing process and how to write a great novel.

Here's what you can expect from these ebooks (taken from his site):
