Writing Posts: 4/13-4/19


Every week I share my favorite writing posts.  Mostly, because I know I'll want links to look through in the future.

The Great Critique Partner Question! by Shannon Messenger.  She makes quite a few good points.

Don't Try To Make It "Easy". Just Try To Get It Done. by Ollin Morales.  I love this.  Also, I started going to the library to write on my lunch break.  I get about thirty minutes of actual writing time.  Sometimes it is the only writing time I get all day, but I've found I'm getting close to 1000 words in that time.  Finding that little slice of time in my day is making a HUGE difference.

The title is too long, but it is an answer to a question about revising by Jennifer Lynn Barnes on her tumblr.  I think it is important to note that I have never been able to put down one of her books.  One sitting reads, every single one of them.

The Breaking Point and Beyond by Carolyn Kaufman.  References to Nip/Tuck, yes please!  I've only watched the first four seasons of Nip/Tuck, but back when I watched TV regularly, it was one of my favorite and the first two seasons are absolutely some of the all-time best-written television.

How I Came To Not Hate Synopses by Adam Heine.  Because I still hate them.

Just Give Me Ten Minutes by Christina Lee.  I totally use this trick all the time.  This is on Janice Hardy's blog, which always makes my list, because her blog is AMAZING.  This week I also loved her First Look at a First Draft post.  So many things I know, but have never heard put quite so clearly.

As always, feel free to share your favorite writing blogs and posts with me!
