Before I go offline for a couple of hours like the good little novelist I am, I wanted to give another plug for my essay on writing scenes. Tomorrow I am doing a CRAFT CHAT for my paid subscribers. It’ll happen asynchronously all day (so we can work it around our writing session, of course.). For $5 you can ask me questions about the writing process, revision techniques, why your scene is so boring, why your sentences hurt (and not in a good way), how to start, how to keep going, how to end, how to ask that person at the coffee shop on a date without seeming like a creep, how to keep the love alive in your marriage, how to not run out of your house screaming when your kids are— oh wait, those aren’t about craft! But you know I am an open fucking book so come on down and let’s CRAFT CHAT. Tomorrow, honey. xoxo
