The always informative Women’s Fiction Writers blog recently posted a piece in which author Carolyn Turgeon shared her own novel-writing mistakes. If you haven’t seen it, we highly recommend that you take a look. Turgeon describes some of the attitudes (rational or not) and practices that trip us all up….sometimes repeatedly. Ahem.
Read, learn, and take heart in the fact that you’re not alone!

Thank you, Carolyn and Women’s Fiction Writers. Been there, done that, and it’s good to know you have too! Keep the good stuff coming….
Great tips! Number six hits home. I’m all about the “pretty passages” and not as well versed in scene development or scene writing. Maybe there’s a workshop in my future …
Thank you for these! Just what I needed, the right advice at the right time.
