Xlibris Publishing Author Fida Abbott Won the Pinnacle Book Achievement Award for Summer 2019

Self-published Book Bagged Pinnacle Book Achievement Award Winner in the category of Short Stories

COATESVILLE, Pa. - Sept. 19, 2019 - PRLog -- The National Association of Book Entrepreneur (NABE) announced the winners of the Summer 2019 Pinnacle Book Achievement Awards and self-published author Fida Abbott from Xlibris Publishing bagged recognition on her book, Exploring My Ideas. Under the category of Short Stories, Exploring My Ideas has joined the roster of the Summer 2019 Pinnacle Book Achievement Awards that has been given for more than 35 years now. Fida Abbott's self-published book was one of those that were honored by NABE to some of the finest independently-published books in a wide variety of different fields in sixty categories.

Designed to fire up the readers' interest, Exploring My Ideas provides a perspective that is enlightening and inspiring and occasionally challenging to the readers' perspective as they travel along the path toward understanding what makes them all tick in the way they do. Abbott uses her talent to teach readers about publishing short stories while adding their own story about how they got to the point of being published.  Ten short stories about psychology, crime, relationship, family, horror, and others, and author commentaries from a multicultural population is a somewhat unique approach to this type of project that only adds insight to the efforts of readers who will benefit from the lessons learned. Exploring My Ideas is an ideal book for those who love literary collection and all writers who write as a hobby or a necessity, especially for beginning-aspiring writers.

PRESS RELEASE BY READERS' FAVORITE: Author's New Book Receives a Warm Literary Welcome

Readers' Favorite announces the review of the Fiction - Short Story/Novela book "Exploring My Ideas" by Fida Abbott, currently available at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1984518429.

Louisville, KY-USA, October 4, 2018 - Readers' Favorite is one of the largest book review and award contest sites on the Internet. They have earned the respect of renowned publishers like Random House, Simon & Schuster, and Harper Collins, and have received the "Best Websites for Authors" and "Honoring Excellence" awards from the Association of Independent Authors. They are also fully accredited by the BBB (A+ rating), which is a rarity among Book Review and Book Award Contest companies.

"Reviewed by Jack Magnus for Readers' Favorite

Exploring My Ideas: Ten Short Stories Followed by the Author's Shared Ideas with a Simple and Practical Guide How to Explore and Compose Ideas into Short Stories is a collection of short stories and an educational guide for writers by Fida Abbott. Abbott is an author and writing instructor, who was born and grew up in Indonesia. She sees her stories as a way to express and share her experiences, feelings and thoughts, and she shows aspiring writers how they can do likewise with their own stories. While the conventional wisdom is to write what you know, Abbott demonstrates how writers can use written material and their imaginations to make other realities vivid enough to base a story on. She concludes each of her short stories with a section that gives “the story behind the short story.”

Fida Abbott’s short story collection and writer’s guide, Exploring My Ideas, is a well-written and thought-provoking book that analyzes and breaks down the writing process for new writers. Abbott’s voice is conversational and informative, and reading her book felt a lot like having her directly interacting with me as I read. I loved the supernatural aspect of The Rent House which was inspired by her own experiences with a haunted house. In Makeup Makeover, the reader is immersed in the world of a preteen whose first experiment with makeup transforms her into Elsa, the Snow Queen from Frozen. Abbott also includes a worksheet for creating and categorizing your story ideas and a chapter entitled Ten Guides to Plot a Short Story that analyzes in detail a short story from her collection. Exploring My Ideas is highly recommended."
