 With the aid of the Plot Genie, one does not have to wait for a rare flash of inspiration for a story. The Genie will provide a complete plot framework every five minutes, and I can show any author where it could have developed the plot structure of any story he ever wrote.” — Wycliffe A.

 In this volume, Wycliffe A. Hill presents nine sections, each with various sub-sections — Type of crime, victim, perpetrator, clues and red herrings, motives — to create a layered and complex puzzle to challenge readers. With this special supplement to the Plot Genie, creating a baffling and exciting mystery/detective yarn is an elementary task!

 It takes a smart person to play the fool — and an even smarter person to build the story of the fool! But Comedy challenges more authors than any other genre. What may seem hilarious to an author, in the solitude of their study, might be unfunny and offensive to audiences.

 For those brave enough to undertake comedy writing, The Plot Genie: Comedy edition promises to ease the burden -- but be warned, that this Plot Genie edition is one of the most complicated. For starters, it's a massive 320 pages -- TWICE the size of other Plot Genie editions. Hill breaks the book into three sections, with various lists and situations, and some rather involved analysis of the science and psychology of laughter. Some modern readers may actually find the lists offensive and or insulting, but be forewarned and try to read the material in the spirit in which it was presented.

 Plot Scientific was the original text for a special and personally conducted course in story plotting by the author, Wycliffe A. Hill. Assignments at each chapter’s conclusion have been designed especially to develop the observation, power of analysis and creative imagination of the writer. If you are a serious student of plot construction, and aspire to reach the next level in your writing, your most valuable tool may be Plot Scientific, paired with one of the many Plot Genie books.

 The “Short-Short Story” was popularized in magazines of the era like Collier’s, which squeezed short stories to a single page. Designed for light entertainment and fast reading, this form of story-telling is becoming more popular as reader’s attention spans are divided between an ever-increasing information overload.
