Loglines

Loglines: A Workbook of Story Ideas for Writers by Carlos Perez is a how-to text for the beginning writer and the professional alike. It’s filled with story ideas as starters for the creative process of writing, along with having several writing exercises that Mr. Perez often uses in his writing classes and workshops. The text is useful for anyone experiencing writer’s block—whether it’s the solo writer, the classroom student, or a member of a writers group. The ideas in the workbook are the beginnings of what could be a complete manuscript, depending on the writer. Mr. Perez has offered a number of skeletons looking for complete bodies to bring them to life, and it’s up to the reader to do just that. The blank pages included with each idea are there to allow the reader/writer the opportunity to play with the idea to make their version of the story whole.
