Hi!
At last! I've nearly finished all the material for my writing tips website - it'll be done by tomorrow, all 143 pages of it! I don't know exactly what happened, I started working on it 3 months ago and somehow it just grew and grew. A helpful resource for intending writers turned into a vast compendium. These last few days, it's been almost like finishing off a novel. (3 months! I could've written a short novel in that time … but, like Everest, once it was there, it had to be done.)
My brain is now completely drained of EVERYTHING I ever thought about writing. I'll have to start thinking about it all again in 5 weeks time, because it's what I've sent out for our ROR critiquing retreat. I thought it would make a bit of variety to throw in among all the narrative MSS.
In the meanwhile, I've put up about two-thirds of it on my author's website at
www.richardharland.net
under the Writing Tips button.
It needs graphics and piccies before it goes up on the writingtips website proper.
I wonder if we should invite Flinthart junior along to the retreat? The lad shows talent!
Cheers
Richard
I’m not the person to give tips on this. Some other source of advice needed!
ReplyDeletePity. I could use some tips on (un)likable characters right now. I think my current MC isn't somewhere I'd personally care to read about :)
Other than that, it looks like you've got a really useful site in the making there. I (used to) spend far too much time on lists & forums jumping up and down about bad advice. It's nice to see something else being offered.
