Hope Ann started the topic Writing book summaries! in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 1 month ago
Question of the week from Elisha! It’s a big question but what focused tips do you have?
What are some tips/advice to craft a compelling book summary (the one on the back of the book/the one readers will look at to see if they want to read the story)?

It is a poem I still feel very deeply. Most my poems don’t turn out quite this well though.

Hope Ann started the topic Bringing facts and fiction together in the forum Research and Worldbuilding 4 years, 2 months ago
This week’s newsletter question is from Amy.
How do I stop getting stuck on the facts of history as I work to weave them into my story? Or maybe I should say, weave my story into the events?

I see a child stand
at the valley entrance.
Alone. Forlorn.
Blood on his feet.
Tears on his cheeks.
The shadows draw him in.
I can’t…
I can’t reach him;
Pull him back.
I can’t even speak.

Hope Ann started the topic Adorable without being cheesy in the forum Characters 4 years, 3 months ago
Characters questions again! Because they are amazing and complex (a little like people; huh).

Hope Ann started the topic Small writing group input? in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 3 months ago
This week’s question is from Mallory, and one I’ve gotten from several authors.
