In this episode, the editors discuss the storytelling elements
in the teen romantic drama The Sun Is Also a Star with a
focus on romantic tension. And they end with some tips for writers
on strengthening their query or back cover blurb.
Each month book editors Carly Hayward and Jeni Chappelle watch a different movie with an eye for storytelling and novel writing. Then they use their training and years of experience editing novels to break down each movie’s storytelling elements to help you improve your novel-in-progress. In each episode, they also feature a query or book blurb for a manuscript that has elements similar to our movie of the month. New episodes air the last Tuesday of every month.
