What an honor to host John Truby’s pub party at Barnes and Noble at the Grove. Anatomy of Genres: How Story Shapes Explain How the World Works is a follow-up to the writers’ bible, Anatomy of Story. My consulting clients will recognize the seven steps of each story form and will love exploring the deeper meaning of each genre – with examples of popular books and movies that transcend them. While I edited four drafts, I can’t take any credit for the brilliance leading this masterpiece to be #1 in four categories on Amazon. Instant classic! (photo by Diana Daniele)
