" One of the best-ever books about the craft of writing. It is a book that can change the world of every writer who embraces Lukeman' s ideas. His classroom on paper should be on every writer' s shelf to be read again and again." ---"Authorlink"
" Full of practical common sense about how to write fiction and [he] answers many of the difficult questions first novelists ask themselves." ---Michael Korda, author of "Making the List"
" Lukeman' s advice is practical---and often entails multiple, time-consuming steps---without a hint of the flakiness that creeps into many writing guides. Though Lukeman works with books, he wisely asserts that the observations in this volume are applicable to all types of imaginary writing, from film to poetry. Indeed, it is a worthy addition to any writer' s reference shelf." ---"Publishers Weekly"
" A godsend..."The Plot Thickens" is not the type of book you want to check out from the library or borrow from a friend. It is the type of book you need to purchase so it can sit on your desk, dog-eared and underlined, worn from years of overuse." ---"Prairieden.com"
