Wow! We already have a few applicants for the Unpublished Writer spot here at WU. Please remember to include a sample post with your answers to our questions and send everything to writerunboxed.
Back to today&#8217;s regularly scheduled post&#8230;
So I&#8217;ve just unsnarled myself from a vicious plot-block. I knew the bones were there; I was missing [...]]]></description>

Carleen Brice&#8217;s lauded debut novel, Orange Mint and Honey, was purchased by Lifetime Movie Network and has been transformed into a made-for-TV movie for the network called Sins of the Mother.

Before I landed an agent and publishing deal, I read something on a well-regarded writerly website about similes. I think the advice went something like this: You shouldn&#8217;t have more than two similes in your entire story because they can be distracting. I did a quick check of The Last Will of Moira Leahy and [...]]]></description>

Is there such a thing as a perfect crime?
Eight months ago, forensic investigator Theresa MacLean lost her fiancé in a bank robbery gone wrong, and she&#8217;s had trouble concentrating on her work ever since. But now a particularly difficult case may just be what she needs to regain her focus by demanding all her skill, [...]]]></description>

Lisa Black knows a thing or two about death. 
She&#8217;s worked in a coroner&#8217;s office as a forensic scientist, has testified in dozens of homicide trials, and has examined her share of fingerprints. It&#8217;s no wonder that, as an author, she gravitates toward suspense novels and dark subjects. Though she&#8217;s written books under another name, [...]]]></description>

Still no sign of Amazon relenting to Macmillan, as all of that publisher&#8217;s books are unavailable to buy new from the site. In a (generous? mean-spirited?) half-concession, Amazon has been posting links to outside vendors who are selling those authors&#8217; books &#8212; you know, like the used ones that won&#8217;t earn the author a single [...]]]></description>

The Intertubes were abuzz this past weekend, and not just because of Apple&#8217;s iPad. At least not directly. 
Amazon.com, retaliating against Macmillan books for demanding that their ebooks be sold using an &#8220;agency model&#8221; (where Amazon takes 30% of a seller&#8217;s set price for a book) instead of continuing to allow Amazon to set low [...]]]></description>
