Writerly Ways
Jun. 23rd, 2019 08:02 pmWell since this week was awful and I'm way behind on everything, I'm just going to say have yourself some links (I'll be looking for prose ones next time,
all_choseny though there are some here).
That and I've sent the cover specs back to the publisher for my Christmas story. Boy I find those things stressful. It's a lot of work to come up with art directions, sample covers of things you like, trying to describe the dudes in your head (which okay is probably IN the story but is harder than you think when you're trying to do it so an artist can look and draw and/or find it).
On top of that my new computer was just force fed a system bios update and from the moment that option came up (which I postponed twice today) every time I put it to sleep to go do something it crashes the browsers and shuts down word. I've lost all kinds of stuff. I have NO idea wtf this is about but if this is how it's going to be, the new computer is going back.
So those links...from around the web Writing the Hard Stuff: Seven Things You Need to Know
The Bodies of the Girls Who Made Me: Fanfic and the Modern World
Preparing for Seasons of Writing Drought
Alpha, Alphaholes and Assholes in Romance
How To Confound And Frustrate Readers
