I have a FREE EBOOK coming out May 1:
Nontraditional Plot Structures for Neurodiverse Writers
A free ebook that introduces neurodiverse writers (and neurotypical) to plot structures beyond the commonly used hero's Journey. These plots are emotionally accessible, highly creative, and more "traditional" than you'd expect.
