The publishing experts we follow have plenty of craft advice to offer.
Here are the ones that we thought were can't-miss for our authors:
-
Writing dialogue as two authors: When co-authors Catherine Curzon and Helen Barrell look back at their work, they often can't recognize who wrote which line of dialogue, and that's cause to celebrate; learn how they tackle character conversations in particular (Women Writers, Women's Books).
-
Why preparing a TED Talk makes you a better memoirist: Don't worry, you don't have to have plans for or intentions of actually getting on stage, in order to benefit from Suzette Mullen's advice (Jane Friedman).
-
Tones in writing: Dave Chesson explores the various tones that fiction and nonfiction can take and reminds you that if something seems off about your work, this is a good place to examine (Kindlepreneur).
-
Improve your storytelling in five minutes: Angela Ackerman and Becca Puglisi have recorded video mini-lessons, all about five minutes long, for each of their writing thesauruses (Writers Helping Writers).
