Today’s post is written by Faith Kochanowski, and it’s a good one.
How to deal with procrastination
Procrastination. It’s a nasty little dragon that often grows ginormous at the most inconvenient times. For instance, the last week of NaNoWriMo. It will bring in other things such as a new shelf that needs a place in the living room which fac…[Read more]

Hello!
Unfortunately, I’ve gotten very little done on this story, so I don’t think we’ll be able to use my work. I didn’t realize that I had 3 days in a row of 12-hour days out of the house. If you have something, that would be excellent. Sorry for not being able to help like…[Read more]

@r-m-archer @jennythefaun Yes, I have entered it! I edited a story from earlier this year that I wrote for a different contest. Just trying my luck I guess. 😛
I enjoyed both of your stories! (I hope you don’t mind that I read yours Ariel… O.o)

Handling critiques and criticism
Maddie MorrowLetting others see our work is probably one of the hardest parts of being a writer. That’s our heart and soul out there at the mercy of prying eyes.
It’s probably one of the most essential parts of writing though.

Okay so all of you have gone through the phase where writing isn’t “fun” anymore, right? It’s not necessarily that you’re stuck or that you don’t have a good idea or that your book isn’t going well… it’s just that given the choice to curl up on the couch and watch Net…[Read more]

@jennythefaun
That all sounds awesome!
Off the top of my head I’m remembering the beginning, and then when she’s talking to Sahran the first time with his siblings. Neither scene is bad, and you’ve got some great details, but there’s also stuff there that doesn’t further the plot or give any necessary information. That could be trimmed a bit. -

This is really cool! I really liked the cultural vibes in the setting.
It’s a short story, but I liked the characters and feel like I was given enough info to get to know them relatively well for the story.
I loved her horse, and was especially intrigued by the earth verses jewel aspect of living beings. If you wanted to, I t…[Read more]

Self Publishing vs Traditional Publishing
I think it’s safe to say that most writers have a ‘one day’ dream of getting published: having your book on the shelves of total strangers and sharing your story with the world.
But there’s always that big question: are you going to self publish or traditional publish?
There’s no right or wrong whe…[Read more]

Hey! I really appreciated your feedback; that was super helpful. (Next time I edit something I need to pay more attention to passive voice and weak verbs, lol.) I’ve made changes, and I was wondering if you’d be willing/have the time to look it over again and make sure I resolved everything sufficiently? If not, I totally get it;…[Read more]
