To write well, you must reach beyond the classroom basics of composition, get a grip on the more complex concepts, and learn how to create books, articles, and stories that move—not only from the editor’s desk to the bookstore, but also in the minds of your readers. In this book, accomplished writer Gary Provost helps you tackle that tough task. Here you’ll touch the soul of fine fiction and nonfiction. You’ll explore the intangibles: the relationships between form and content, proportion and pacing, slant and theme. And you’ll gain a new perspective on how words work together. In that newfound knowledge you’ll find power—power Provost helps you transfer to the page. In candid, conversational style, he shows you: • how to balance event and dialogue to keep the pace lively • why unity is essential to a story—and how to maintain it • how to make the written word pleasing to the ear • the value of fresh, strong imagery • how startling originality will keep your readers interested • how to make your story credible—even when it’s fiction • how subtlety allows your reader to participate in the action • how to tighten up the tension at every level of your story Provost makes no promise that the work will be easy. He promises only that your books, articles, and stories will get better. There are, after all, no magic words—except those you put on the page.

Management Insights From Motivational Slokas written by Karanam Nagaraja Rao and has been published by Educreation Publishing this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on with Education categories.
In India, the Sanskrit literature is an abundant ocean of knowledge and the more we explore, the more we get. In this book, there are around 108 selected slokas, many of which are from Bhartruhari Niti Sataka, Vidura Niti, Kautilya's Arthasastra, Maha Bharatha, Pancatantra and few others. These slokas are basically for the rulers of the kingdoms and are also known as subhashitas (literal meaning is good words of advice). In olden days these Subhashitas were viewed with great respect. Kautilya opined that Subhashita is on par with other basic requirements like water and food. There are many books in English giving the literary meaning of these subhashitas / slokas. But, in this book, an attempt is made to interpret them from leadership and managerial perspectives. And again for the question, why from ancient wisdom, it is felt that people who want happiness in life are increasingly looking towards spirituality as an alternative to materialistic culture. They need some 'spiritual hooks' or 'skyhooks' to cling upon to justify their decisions. The slokas provide the ground on which spiritual thoughts can propel and proliferate. For those who cannot read Devanagari script, an English version of the sloka in I-Trance format is provided. This book is highly useful for practicing managers, leadership coaches, mentors and the CEOs. Though the title of the book refers managerial insights, the book includes psychological, sociological, and human centric perspectives of the business environment.
