Erotic Dimensions of Romance: This Will Consume the Great PersonErotic Dimensions of Romance
http://jessieverino.blogspot.com/2008/06/this-will-consume-great-person.html
Erotic Dimensions of Romance. Erotic Romance Author Jessie Verino. Friday, June 20, 2008. This Will Consume the Great Person. Now, if you guys have ever played Civilization IV. You recognize the title of today's post. And you know the game will consume you. I am a below mid-level player of this game. But it's addicting, and for a strategy game which should be boring for the first 100 turns or so, it's downright fun to play for hours (and hours, and hours) at a time. How do you create culture? So, in the ...

Charlotte Forbes: Writers don't write.
http://charlotteforbes.blogspot.com/2007/11/writers-dont-write.html
Thursday, November 15, 2007. Writers don't write, they re-write, according to author Patrick Picciarelli. I read this today on the Web and was immediately struck by the pithy truth of the statement. For me, editing is the best, not the hardest part of writing. It's wrestling the skeleton of the story to the ground and ignoring my internal editor that makes me sweat. I've come to recognize this internal tug of war as part of my process. Sometimes I have to put a work away for several days or e...If you fi...

Charlotte Forbes: WIPs
http://charlotteforbes.blogspot.com/2007/11/wips.html
Wednesday, November 28, 2007. I've begun a new WIP while my most recent manuscript percolates for edits. The current story is my first attempt to specifically write for a publisher and one of their imprints. I have heard that doing so, and doing so well, can be a key for a first time author to get a foot in the door. I came up with the idea for reviving this plot (from a story I had worked on and discarded years ago) after Harlequin's Isabel Swift. Posted a Presents writing contest on her blog. It ga...

Charlotte Forbes: My White Whale
http://charlotteforbes.blogspot.com/2007/12/my-white-whale.html
Thursday, December 6, 2007. Is almost ready to come back out of the oven for edits. How do I know this? The manuscript is sitting atop a naked portion of my bookshelves all by its lonesome. When I first rested it there (where I knew I would have to look at it every day) it made me nauseous to see it. I wanted it to go away and never see it again. When I'm reading something else, helping one of my writer's group friends with edits on a WIP. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Donald Maass Literary Agency.
