  • Ep 15 - The process of re-writing
    Sep 15 2022

    Re-writing gives you the opportunity to truly write your story and make sure that it’s telling a tale in a deeply engaging way.

    While re-writing your novel can be frustrating at times, it’s an essential part of the novel writing process.

    The best part about re-drafting your novel is that it gives you a chance to really get to know your characters and understand their motives.

    Re-writing is often not particularly covered in writing courses, but the process is vital in order to produce a polished novel that you’re happy with.

  • Ep 14 - Writing Snappy Dialogue
    Sep 8 2022

    Dialogue is one of the most challenging parts of writing - or is it?

    After all, we all talk. But when it comes to writing dialogue, sometimes all we hear is crickets.  

    In this week's episode of the Write Your Novel podcast, I break down my process for writing dialogue, from the nuts and bolts of setting it out on the page to what words I choose to put in which characters' mouths.   ---------

  • Ep 13 - The Path to Publication
    Aug 25 2022
    The path to publication can be long and twisted. It certainly was for me, with scores of rejections, setbacks, and false hopes.   In this week's episode of the Write Your Novel podcast, I tell some stories from the road both good and bad on what it took to get my debut novel Locust Summer published.   What got me through - in the end - was strictly separating the submission process and anything to do with publishing from my writing.   So, let's dive into how to do that, and perhaps make your journey a little smoother than mine was.
