Description

Hi! My name is Jed Herne, and on this podcast, I share the best fantasy writing advice that I've learned from publishing four fantasy novels and coaching 5,000+ writers in my live classes and self-paced courses.

My books include Kingdom of Dragons, The Thunder Heist, Across the Broken Stars, and Fires of the Dead. I also wrote Siege of Treboulain, an interactive epic fantasy novel published by Choice of Games. I also created the Wizards, Warriors, & Words, and Novel Analyst podcasts.

Expect to learn about plotting, character development, worldbuilding, magic systems, and lots more.

If you want to take your writing further, then read my book, Plotting Your Fantasy Novel.

This book will help you decide exactly what events you should include in your novel. Unlike other methods, you won't follow a rigid template that makes your characters act in a forced way.

Instead, you’ll use 9-Point Plot Structure to build your characters and plot in unison. This will make your story unfold in an organic, cohesive, and captivating fashion.

By using this simple system, you will design clear plot points to work towards when you're writing. You'll also learn how to easily connect the gaps between these major plot points, so that you never get stuck (especially in the middle of your story).
