The guide also helps make emotional moments more meaningful by showing how to bring a character's hidden emotions to the surface and amplify their reactions for 50 unique states and conditions. This approach can help make characters more relatable, using a character's internal strain to build reader empathy and investment.
In addition to The Emotion Thesaurus Second Edition, Ackerman is working on the next volume in the series, The Fear Thesaurus. For those eager to get a sneak peek, a preview can be found at the One Stop for Writers THESAURUS database.
Another valuable resource from Ackerman is The Emotion Amplifier Thesaurus: A Writer's Guide to Character Stress and Volatility. This book, along with The Fear Thesaurus, are yet to be released due to ongoing development and the author's commitment to ensuring high quality before publication.
The eBook "The Emotion Thesaurus: A Writer's Guide to Character Expression" is currently a Kindle Day Deal at $1.49 on Amazon, making it an affordable addition to any writer's toolkit.
Lastly, Ackerman's passion for empowering writers extends beyond her work. She loves to travel, teach, and pay-it-forward, making her a valuable asset to the writing community. She encourages readers to share their thoughts through book reviews, helping her continue to improve and expand her resources for writers.
