THREE chapters left to edit in Book-5.

I’m close, but will lose a block of time today at the No Kings march downtown.

To aid my writing self, I made certain I’d have a fairly short chapter to work on tomorrow, and then got a head start on it last night.

Even if I fall behind today, that’s okay. Democracy comes first. If it didn’t for all of us, there would’t be a democracy.

Be everwell.

Center on internal flaw for compelling story

To make a story more compelling, consider structuring it around an internal flaw in the main character. An internal flaw is some personal trait that makes a character less than perfect – perha…

Four chapters left to edit in Book-5.

Thank goodness for reading a book on the side while I’m performing a targeted edit.

Here’s the thing about targeted editing. You jump randomly around chapters. I may know the story, but there’s no sense of advancement because that’s the idea.

It’s great for focusing, but you never feel like a reader. You want that, but it can wear on you.

Be everwell.

Ways your main character can ultimately succeed

When reaching the climax of the story, the main character usually overcomes the central problem that he set out to solve. Still, this penultimate scene tends to play out differently from story…

FIVE chapters left to edit in Book-5.

It’s crazy, but I began worldbuilding Carrdia and writing its first story simultaneously, including realizing I needed at least a preliminary map.

I grabbed a scrap sheet of paper, flipped it over, and went wild sketching. At least 85% of that map endured.

What would’ve happened to my stories, I wonder, if I’d sketched a different map?

Be everwell.
