What you want to say depends on your novel’s worth. In other words, are you saying anything worthwhile? Whether your story is drama, comedy, erotica, it needs a point, a statement of belief—a premise. But just what is that scary word, premise?

Premise is simply what you believe, or want your reader to believe. It’s what you want to say about a subject. What you want to prove. There are times when you’re in an argument with someone that makes no sense, and you’ll say, “What’s your point?”

They begin to “focus” and tell you what’s really bothering them.

“Well, you took my blouse and didn’t ask, and I want you to know I don’t appreciate it.” What they believe is that people shouldn’t borrow things without returning them.

When you start your story, you’re thinking about a lot of things, drawing the reader into the story, starting with action, giving the who, what, when, where, how, but all of those elements are just floating around in your head. You have to decide what you really believe is the heart of this story. It’s what you want to say. What you want to prove with each chapter. In this case, you took my blouse and that’s not right. That’s your premise—borrowing without consent leads to turmoil.

Now every chapter of your book must prove that borrowing leads to turmoil. That kind of pre-thinking is the only thing that will keep you from wandering around wasting time, writing great stuff that doesn’t move your story forward because you don't have a cohesive story. Writing is about “selecting” which experiences will prove your point--premise. I think of my biggest joy and make a statement about it. That’s my premise for a feel-good book. I think of my greatest pain for a drama and decide what it will lead to. I ask myself, where does that particular pain lead? When I decide, I have a path that leads me to a story and its logical ending. That w

Selling to a Door in the Face
We are affected when we are introduced to two vastly different alternatives in succession. We know that contrasting two alternatives can distort or amplify our perceptions of things. Generally, if the second item is quite different from the first, we will tend to see them even more differently than they actually are. As a Master Persuader, you can use this contrast to steer your audience toward the object of your persuasion. The use of contrast is based on our perception of items or events that happen one right after the other. If you've had

Article Marketing – How to Do It
Article marketing is one of the greatest areas of untapped marketing potential online, in my humble opinion. I think that the reason article marketing is still so under-penetrated as a method of marketing is because people are generally lazy.I made the comment the other day that I think that there are only 100 internet marketers online today who are making a fulltime income online with article marketing. Imagine that – can you think of another area online that has the same potential for growth? Everybody and their uncle is involved in just about every other

Podcasting for Dollars - Profitable Podcasting
Podcasting is becoming a modern alternative to publishing on the internet and its popularity is on the rise even as we speak. It is the fastest growing mode of communication today and you can take advantage of this growing trend to use it to your profit. 1. The numero uno rule of the internet is content. Content is king and you must be able to come up with an interesting subject. Decide on what is your subject matter and in what form you plan to publish it. Come up with interesting forms or even make it sound like a dialogue between you and the a

How Your Credit Card Info Can Be Stolen By Identity Thieves
There are a number of situations when you are vulnerable to having your credit card information stolen by credit card thieves. Here are a few of them and how to avoid getting victimized.Buying Gas - There have been cases where hackers have planted a software “bug” in a gas station machine used to process the credit card payments. The bug then captures any credit card information that is entered. It is not known how widespread this kind of crime is, but a number of cases have been recorded. There is no way for you to tell whether the credit card machine has a b

is about “selecting” which experiences will prove your point--premise. I think of my biggest joy and make a statement about it. That’s my premise for a feel-good book. I think of my greatest pain for a drama and decide what it will lead to. I ask myself, where does that particular pain lead? When I decide, I have a path that leads me to a story and its logical ending. That way, I don’t spend 10 years putting in and taking out, just because I remember those unforgettable experiences like I did. Just because the scenes are vivid and colorful. I want to write a story that jells together, where the whole is bigger than its parts.

Last year, I edited a wonderful book, “The End Justifies The Means” by TArik Moore. It was a coming-of-age story about the tragedy of a ten-year-old inner city boy who stabbed his father to death because he thought he was killing his mother. He finally went to college and helped carve out a better life for his hoodlum cousins and himself. The first thing I did was to read and find a premise. “Good can come out of the ghetto.”

At times, it was so bad for the kid I wondered how good could ever come out of that ghetto. The ghetto could have sucked him in, but the premise said good could come out of the ghetto. We cut out every chapter that didn’t prove that good could come out of the ghetto. We didn't allow him to get too bad with his cousins. Each chapter proved something good was coming out of that New Jersey ghetto. And it turned out to be a sound, compelling story that is making its way to a market that waits for it.

The Mayor’s Wife Wore Sapphires—premise: division in the Black race hinders progress. From my years as a mayor’s wife, I always saw great potential in our people, but when the rubber met the road, was always division. A lack of commitment to lift each other up. I wanted to see unity. So each chapter had to show tha

A PowerPoint presentation may be all that stands between you and funding or you and a contract. Unfortunately, because it is so easy to use it is also easy to abuse and can spell disaster for even the most experienced presenters. A successful presentation is a visual aid and not a visual distraction.

You (the plaintiff) brought a small claims or civil suit against a debtor (the defendant) and were awarded a judgment. You, as the judgment creditor (winner) have a right to judgment recovery from the judgment debtor (loser). How do you enforce the judgment to ensure the judgment recovery is complete?

This article is designed to tell you exactly how I do my article marketing, just the way I do it everyday. I identify a niche. That's kind of a basic level--I did that nine months ago. I know what my niches are so I write around those niches. The second thing that I'll do is write out...
