[From the Archive] Writing Reality

Posted by reudaly on February 18, 2011 in Archive, Writing |

Shana Swendson, author of the Enchanted, Inc. series, did a bit in her journal a few weeks back about the “Unreality” of writerly life on television. I will barely touch on this, so go read her insights on it. It’s both amusing and too, too true. And it comes up now because I’m in the […]

Posted by reudaly on January 7, 2011 in Archive, Writing |

Last week I talked about writer’s block. This week I think I’ll talk about getting back on track. It’s all well and good to mention things that combat writer’s block, but when you’re really good and discombobulated, it’s difficult to pull yourself out of the spiral and get back to the job of writing. I […]

This was from a while back… Enjoy the distraction. It’s the Holidays after all, and we all need a bit of distraction. You can thank Facebook for this week’s article. My friends there are responsible for this idea – mostly because I had none of my own. It’s been one of those weeks. The Plot […]

[From the Archive] Make ‘Em Laugh

Posted by reudaly on December 3, 2010 in Archive, Writing |

Make ’em… Make ’em laugh Don’t you know everyone wants to laugh These are key words in one of my favorite Singing in the Rain songs done by Donald O’Connor. And it’s true with writing as well. Humor is one of the perennial favorites in literature. It’s also one of the hardest genres to write […]

[From the Archive] Where Do You Get Your Ideas?

Posted by reudaly on November 19, 2010 in Archive, Writing |

“Where do you get your ideas?” Every writer down through history has been asked this question – many, countless times – throughout their careers. Each time the answer is both the same and different.

Originally published in 2009 – the books mentioned have been released and are available… The publishing industry felt a huge blow rock its foundations in December 2008. Many of the Big Houses felt a whole restructure which slashed staff, budgets, and acquisitions, sending many authors and other industry professionals into a tailspin. However, as the […]

[From the Archive] Successfully Networking at a Convention

Posted by reudaly on October 8, 2010 in Archive, Writing |

Many times new – and even moderately successful – writers and artists ask the same question: “How do you network at a convention?” For many, the answer comes in forms of “Don’ts” • Don’t be a jerk. (Seriously. Nothing makes a worse impression than showing your butt.) • Don’t hover. (Stalkers rarely gain anything other […]
