Okay, I’m still in the brainstorming stage of the next story but am looking ahead to when I’m going to be prepping my plot. One of the areas I struggle with in my stories is the middle (no surprise, right?). I find that I don’t get it exciting enough. It doesn’t build up into the 3rd act the way I want it to.
So, my question is, what do you do to…[Read more]

@wingiby-iggiby, nice to meet you. I love South Africa, but that’s understandable when I admit to never having left South African soil. This is home. The people, the cultures, the land, it’s mine in a way that’s difficult to describe. “I am African, not because I was born in Africa, but…[Read more]

Hi everyone, new member here.
So, I guess I should introduce a little about myself … I’m a South African who loves to create and write stories. I’ve recently admitted to myself that while I know a lot of the “theory” of writing a really great novel, my execution is sloppy and needs work. So, I’m really happy to have found this site and the…[Read more]
