Review
“0 to 60: Write Pacing Your Readers Won’t Forget teaches vital elements in storytelling: how to keep the tale surprising, how to build tension and suspense, how to kick readers’ hearts into overdrive, and how to let them breathlessly rest. What struck me most is that Write Pacing Your Readers Won’t Forget is not only about the variety of ways we control pace, but about the intentionality of pacing: Do we reveal, delay, or misdirect? What are the hundred ways to do each? What makes for a better story? How do we recognize where we rushed, and how do we see where we’ve dragged?
“Drawing examples from multiple sources to illustrate the lessons, and then suggesting exercises to build skills, master teacher Stant Litore guides writers toward their creative goals. This is the fifth book in an eight-book writer’s toolkit. I’ve been writing and selling fiction for a long time. I wish I read these books when I started, but a writer should never stop growing. I’m ecstatic to have them now.” – James Van Pelt, author of Pandora’s Gun

"There are other worldbuilding books out there; this is the one you want." - Travis Heerman, author of the Ronin trilogy
“A master class: Litore has created an accessible, comprehensive approach.” – S.G. Redling, author of Flowertown and Damocles
“This is a clear, comprehensive, and beautifully written guide that will not only help emerging writers to find their voices and build imaginative worlds and characters, but one that will also prove invaluable to experienced writers seeking to spark their creative impulses or deepen the worlds they create.” – Angela Mitchell, author of Falada and Dancing Days
