Well Grounded Literary Reviews. Monthly Archives for October 2015. I’ve Never Read The Call Of The Wild…Or Have I? The Call of the Wild. I read this book before. I must have, right?

I mean, who hasn’t read this? We all know the story. Sure, t...

Well Grounded Literary Reviews. Monthly Archives for November 2015. Double Down on Wild Cards: Aces Abroad. Wild Cards IV: Aces Abroad. Edited by George R. R. Martin. We are often addicted to things that are not entirely good for us. Not that it can’t be pleasurable, but usually there is a side effect that becomes more prominent than the actual pleasure. The addiction becomes stronger and the compulsion to keep doing what you’re doing takes over any rational thoughts of stopping. But its not really bad p...

Who am I anyway? My Journey as a Novelist. Planning, Plotting, and Tying it All Together. In response to Winging It: Our Ever-evolving Mystery Writing Method #1, another writer asked for hints on tying everything together and making sure there are no loose ends. Yes, we had a plan for A Halo for Red Betsy, and we maintained a number of the original elements, but we didn’t used a more structured method because we didn’t want to be tied to any particular element. At least, I don’t. Which left us with eithe...

Who am I anyway? My Journey as a Novelist. Winging It: Our Ever-evolving Mystery Writing Method #3. Another reason for keeping the planning loose is that secondary characters sometimes demand a bigger part. The character of Julie Flynn was originally going to be killed by mistake, and it was her murder that would expose the killer. She was introduced when Frank brought her a drink, which lead to her running off at the mouth. Here’s an excerpt:. Hey, if you don’t like me, just say so. Who the hell knows?

Al McDermid – Winging It
https://almcdermid.wordpress.com/author/almcdermid
Who am I anyway? My Journey as a Novelist. I’ve been reading a lot of self-published books lately, and nearly 99% of these are one or two edits short of ready (in terms of style and content). One way to rectify this is to find reliable beta-readers, and then listen to what they have to say. If you ask people to read your manuscript, the hope is that you did so to make it better; let them do the job you asked them to do. You’re a writer; what you mean is suppose to be on the page. Beta-reading can be hard...

Astounding Comics!
The action figures are alive and out for blood. Like Toy Story, but with more sex and violence. These are the adventures of Goku and Cobra Commander, two toys trying to find their place in the world and doing the things that sociopaths do. Tuesday, February 07, 2017. The lost Reflector comics!
