Thoughts today on the rapid-release mentality in self-publishing, how SFF differs from Romance that way, and how writers place value on their own work. I mention how Ed Sheeran's media blitz has affected me in this context. 

Also, I feel I should add that I also follow P!nk on Instagram, because she's awesome.

Revisiting my (surprisingly) long career, with thoughts on art, audience, and "making it." Oh, and being multi-genre. Also dishing on Big Little Lies and Juliet, Naked. 

The quote I reference is: "When one's young one doesn't feel a part of it yet, the human condition; one does things because they are not for good; everything is a rehearsal. To be repeated ad lib, to be put right when the curtain goes up in earnest. One day you know that the curtain was up all the time. That was the performance." ~Sybille Bedford, from Walking on Alligators: a Book of Meditations for Writers, by Susan Shaughnessy

About my lady-who-lunches lifestyle of late, and a bit about The Hate U Give - things I learned and musings on textured stories and nuanced characters.

The movie I was trying to think of wasn't Amy Schumer at all, but Rebel Wilson. (I've mentioned how my brain has weird filing this way.) Isn't It Romantic.

A commuting podcast on my way for writer coffee - had a great convo with Trent Zelazny - wherein I talk to other drivers and fill you all in on my victories in Battles with the Universe. A bit more ranting about the fax obstacle and heads up on my LERA workshop on writing cross-genre this weekend. (Oh, and I know I said it's July 12, but I know it's really July 11. Or, rather, I figured that out...)

I'm talking more today about finding the right place to start a story, how difficult that can be, and why I always listen when someone tells me where they think it should start. Also how an agent can be helpful in these early stages, and why I have newfound respect for people who can roast well.
