The publishing experts we follow have plenty of craft and mindset advice to offer.
Here are the ones that we thought were can't-miss for our authors:
-
Writers, are you head-hopping?: Anne R. Allen and her friends have noticed a lot of head-hopping in recent novels, leading her to believe that some writers don't quite understand omniscient versus third-person limited point of view (Anne R. Allen's Blog... with Ruth Harris).
-
Coping mechanism thesaurus — cultivating trust: Becca Puglisi gives examples of how cultivating trust, as a way to process and handle stress and hurt, can show that your character is growing (Writers Helping Writers).
-
How to write mythic fiction: K.M. Weiland discusses what "mythic" really means, before unpacking why writers should (and how they can) stop borrowing old myths and start creating new ones (Helping Writers Become Authors).
-
A draft with a will of its own: Therese Walsh explains how an unwieldy draft could actually be an opportunity for you to be curious about how the story is going — and to discover inspiration (Writer Unboxed).
-
Anything is possible: Life as a writer isn't easy, and the voices outside have plenty of warnings, so Greer Macallister invites you to try believing that the opposite is true — that, in fact, anything and everything is possible (Writer Unboxed).
