Book excerpt: This book is a practical guide on how anyone with a passion for creative writing and a story to tell can churn out not just a novel but a hit novel in as little as seven days. The insights are drawn from my experience while writing my first six novels - Bridal Nun (Book One), Reverend Hajji, Co-Husband, She-Mailed, Facebooked and Surgical Proposal, all of which are books you do not stop reading until you have finished. I draw examples from these six novels in order to illustrate the key points. How to Write a Hit Novel in 7 Days can be used by anyone. Nevertheless, it is primarily written for writers that want to publish their novels with GeraldKateu Publishers and benefit from our cutting edge cover designs and aggressive out-of-the-box marketing strategies. Topics covered include: the writer's plan, features of a writer's plan, identifying your first audience, choosing a genre, character creation, laying down the story board, elements of a good narrative, incorporating local culture in your story, writing dialogue, the use of cliff hangers, building your story to a climax, editing your work, writing a synopsis for your book, etc. - Gerald Kateu, Author
