Otherwhere: Good Stuff
I’ve been collecting goodies for you, a lot of which came in the last couple of days. Also, please note my non-link related question at the end.
Here goes:
Writing
Analyze your novel as if it were a dream.
I could not live without the TK.
It isn’t conflict that drives the story after all. (READ THIS ONE.)
Women Fiction Writers (Amy Sue Nathan’s blog)
A new platform for serialized work.
Structuring story with Robert McKee.
Marketing, Etc.
Other Creative Stuff
You knitters out there will appreciate this.
I can’t help it, I love nutty Russians.
My buddy Roy has a great story to tell about a long-lost penpal.
I read this blog every morning.
Okay, basta! Here’s my very important question: if I were to start a Facebook group (that might or might not be closed, I’m not sure), would you be interested in joining it? I’ve long been pondering a way for my loyal commenters and others to have an easier way to talk to each other. Thoughts? What are your positive/negative experiences with such groups? And while we’re at it, what is the secret to life? (Kidding about that last one–unless you have the answer.)

Yes – I’d be interested in a Facebook group. I tend to check Facebook and email most frequently, so the Facebook group is a way for me to stay connected with others interested in the same things I am.

Oh good, thanks for your reply!

I love all the links you post, though I have no intention of knitting, learning Russian, or organizing my day. I haven’t clicked on any of them yet, but I see them in my future. I promise not to waste too much time on them, no looking for secret metaphors or mapping the etymology of every word. I do have to write you know. I’ve given up word count and committed to at least one sentence per night. I love your blog, Charlotte.

Wait, you have to write? What’s that about? Kidding, of course. I’m grateful you love my blog. I love your writing.
