K. Ross offers a distinct way for her readers to make their own imaginative worlds, piece by piece. She clarifies how to create lifelike and multi-dimensional characters, paint a believable background, weave a thematic storyline, and raise up dramatic tension. I have not seen any other such concrete and sensible methodology throughout my 37 years of teaching.
