Write a 5-Star Book 2
When I set out to write Book 2 in my Fountain series, I made the common mistake of thinking it would be easier than the first one, which took me more than four years to write. After all, I’d already created the world and gotten to know my characters inside and out. I knew what […]…

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/molecular-description-tickets-863982704527?utm_experiment=test_share_listing&aff=ebdsshios free workshop this Saturday 14:00-16:00 EDT.
“Description is a writer’s keystone skill. Far trickier than faxing pictures from your brain onto a page, description is often where otherwise strong ideas falter. Synthesizing five years of reading for Augur and decades of writing, Molecular Description starts with the idea that "describe" is a writer’s fundamental verb. From there, you’ll go spelunking through what can be accomplished when you centre description as the basic conceptual unit of your work. Whether you want to write about neutronium krakens or wilted flowers in a kitchen vase, you’ll leave equipped with reliable tools for vivid, powerful, and creative descriptions.”
