One of the most useful books on writing that I've read in the past 10 years is Wired For Story by Lisa Cron. It merges art with science, deftly explaining how we are biologically wired to pinpoint those elements we as readers seek and hope to find while reading a story.
To hear a summary of some of the most salint points in her book, I'm including the link Grammar Girl: Quick & Dirty Tips for Better Writing, where Lisa Cron's work is showcased in an article. You can also listen to the audio version (10-minutes), which is located just above the GG article.
