On the books in the series I’ve read (Other than Character and Viewpoint, which is wonderful):I really loved Nancy Kress’s Beginnings, Middles, and Ends. Some good ideas for how to make your way through each part of the story.
Description by Jack M. Bickham was interesting, if not eye opening for me..
I didn’t much care for Plot. It didn’t really say anything.
Dialog was utterly atrocious. It’s written entirely in dialog which, while it would seem like a good idea, actually makes the examples impossible to follow.
