On Mixing Genres, How to Organize Your Research, & Rejection
|
|
|
As I work on some things behind the scenes here at Barany School of Fiction (Summer Sale coming soon!), I wanted to be sure you knew about some recent posts on our Writer's Fun Zone blog.
First up, check out Michael Finberg's post on the need to mix genres in popular fiction.

Next up, if you're looking for ideas on how to organize your series bible, check out Chloe Adler's post here:

Last but not least, a lovely reframe on something we all face as writers, rejection by Nevada McPherson.

And, I'm half-way through Lynn Johnston's class on creating character arcs and am loving it. Her class is great for plotters and pantsers.
Since I'm about to edit and revise my 4-book science fiction mystery series, I'm really loving her brainstorming suggestions to get clear on my character arcs.
Happy Writing! ♥ And have a great week!
All my best, Beth
PS. Special sale coming for Barany School of Fiction in soon. Now that I have over a dozen self-paced/homestudy courses, I'll be doing something new for my annual Summer Sale! Stay tuned!

Every day I get an auto-post from NASA into my Facebook feed because I'm a space geek. There I said it.
