		<description><![CDATA[Oh, we wordherders love to procrastinate. We also love to metaphorically masturbate. We are enamored with conducting &#8220;storytelling research&#8221; &#8212; aka justifying watching hours of TV to see how &#8220;the pros&#8221; write great dialogue. We lovingly re-read our work-in-progress&#8217; first three chapters again and again, as we&#8217;ve done for weeks (or years). We drone on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The best writing advice I ever received was from Brad Meltzer, one of my favorite novelists. He writes mostly political thrillers. I met him at a signing, told him I was writing my first novel, and was stuck in Act Two. “I’ve built a lot of momentum,” I said, “and I think I know where [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s the time of year when television seasons are concluding, which always gets me thinking about storytelling &#8212; endings, specifically. The best dramatic TV season finales perform several critical functions: they pull out the narrative stops by bringing together disparate story threads in interesting and meaningful ways … they often build intrigue or cliffhangers for [...]]]></description>

A fan of my novels, he wanted to know if the film rights to my 7th Son thriller trilogy were available to option for motion picture development. This was an &#8220;embarrassment of riches&#8221; moment: the trilogy was optioned [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been thinking about movies and television shows lately: the power of their immediacy, the creative constraints screenwriters face in crafting visually rich stories, and most of all, how demanding the craft can be.  While it&#8217;s the director&#8217;s and actors&#8217; jobs to realize what&#8217;s on the page, great screenwriters deliver a vision that illustrates everything [...]]]></description>

A contingent of ebook consumers are crowing that, in light of the recent Amazon/Macmillan standoff and pricing precedent that was set, ebook prices will shoot through the roof.

I love reading prose fiction &#8212; but in my heart of hearts, I&#8217;m a movie junkie. It&#8217;s a brilliant way to economically tell stories, and I enjoy the creative constraints the medium [...]]]></description>

It ain&#8217;t pretty, but it&#8217;s the truth &#8212; and we writers quest to be honest with ourselves, the worlds we create, and the words we use. It&#8217;s butterfly-kissing midnight.
