*BOOKS* All new formats and an all new book.
You know, I haven’t posted on this blog for a long time, and I am still thinking heavily about continuing it or not. There doesn’t seem to be a great deal of interest in it. That’s okay. I’m not upset by it. But combine that with a great disarray of my thoughts about putting down on paper in a fairly orderly fashion what I know about writing, and it makes it a lot of hard work for very little gain.
*BOOKS* “You’re not a proper writer.”
This rather long, slighty awkward post is part self-confession and part advice. Originally written for writers, I think it’s relavant for anyone on a journey to who they were created by God to be.
*BOOKS* Planners vs pantsers: How I discovered an amazing third option.
You might have already come across this debate: Is it better to plan your novel or to wing it? Once upon a time I held a firm opinion in one direction, but then something surprising happened. And it led to a whole new way of seeing things – a different solution that I had never heard of before.
*BOOKS* One of the Most Important Pieces of Advice I was Given
Before we get into any other piece of advice, we need to start with the most important thing I have to tell you. It is not just the most important piece of writing-related advice I ever received, it also led to some of the most important lessons God ever taught me, a decade after I first put the advice into practice. If you read nothing else, I hope you read this.
