25 YEARS AFTER MY FIRST SALE(S)

4 days ago by Philip Athans

Has it been that long ago now? Have I been a “published author” for twenty-five years? Wow. You know what, the idea came to me (late today, actually and after a couple of false starts on other topics) to write about my first sale. But it was only after pulling out the box with all my old publication ...

Not Writey Tighty?

5 days ago by G

It's funny how the old adage "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't" gets hammered home repeatedly when you're a writer.

6 days ago by Tim Worstall

E-book sales are being driven by downmarket genre fiction It doesn't sound like they approve, does it? Kindle-owning bibliophiles are furtive beasts. Their shelves still boa ...

[GUEST POST] J. Kelley Anderson on Making Room for Genre Fiction in the ...

6 days ago by John Ottinger III

Recently, after years of being a Miltonist, researcher, English graduate student, and teacher, I left academia for greener (weirder) pastures, but my time among the stewards of the literary canon left me feeling a little uneasy about myself and the genre I love. That’s right. Call the record books. ...

Black Dreams

author: Green, Kate The Southern California psychic from Shattered Moon is working with the post-Rodney King beating LAPD to find a missing child.

This Needs Editing?

12 days ago by G

My particular problem that I need a little help on has to do with editing, specifically, my novel "Line 21", of which you will find at my other blog, the chapter in question, all five pages of it. I finally found some free time over the weekend to pull out the chapter in question and briefly skim th ...

CPR for the Undead: Can We Save the Vampires?

15 days ago by Emmie Mears

I love vampires. Ever since I got my paws on Christopher Pike‘s book The Last Vampire, they caught my attention. It was a series, and I first read it back when the cover looked like this: Such charming imagery. Yes, I know this is the second book. I loved this book. It enthralled me, thinking of a 5 ...

What the *%$#^! is "literary fiction"?

15 days ago by Cynthia J. McGean

Come on. You can't tell me I'm the only one who's fed up with this bizarre little term, which, to be honest, I never even encountered until I started going to writing conferences and reading writing blogs and following writer's chat groups. Isn't it a little redundant? According to my big fat Webste ...
