I think I'm getting sick, so short list this week:
7 Dialog Basics That Can Help Tighten Our Stories by Jody Hedlund
How To Button A Chapter by Mary Kole.
March Madness: All the Little Things by Vickie Motter. If only for the excellent use of the phrase "man meat".
Lost In the Crowd: Working With Multiple Point of View Characters by Janice Hardy. This isn't the type of post that would normally catch my eye. However, I am about a third of the way through The Night Circus and it is so magical that for the first time I am attracted to the idea of writing a story with multiple points of view.

Thanks for the link to the multiple POV article. If done well, I think multiple POV is great. If I can't tell whose POV I'm in and have to flip pages to figure it out, I get cranky. And sometimes I prefer one POV way more and then feel disappointed when it shifts to the one I don't like.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the links. I found the dialog one helpful.
ReplyDeleteYou're getting sick? I hope you feel better.
