Sheesh, I don’t check a blog for a week or so, and I miss something big. Over at the stellar Flogging the Quill, Ray has what he terms “a modest proposal” but is really a killer deal: an online storytelling workshop. Folks, if you have a WIP you’d like honest feedback on …. and I’m talking about honest feedback unencumbered by friendships, blood ties, tit-for-tats, critique group political b.s. . . . . here’s your opportunity. Then scroll up for his guest post by Sheila Williams on first drafts. I felt a whole lot better reading it.
But I’m not sure how I feel about this alleged “Top Ten Blogs About Writing and Publishing” entry if WU isn’t on it, but there are some links to good blogs by industry insiders (h/t Pubrants), and I found this guy who isn’t shy about his disdain for La Snark (warning: expletive-filled, venomous and hilarious) . . . . Eric shows us a nifty way of organizing your story before you start writing . . . . this disturbs me so much I can’t even begin to explain . . . . Bookdwarf wades into the bitchslap war going on in the chick-lit genre, as does Paperback Writer . . . .
More after the jump.
