With a title like that, I’m sure some of you thought that this was going to be about relationships. Maybe even romance, or even something steamier.
Yeah, no. Sorry. And for that last one, don’t get your hopes up. That’s not what I write (and yet people keep requesting it …).
So, right now, I think I may be able to guess what many of you are thinking, which is, upon looking at the title: Hey, didn’t we just read this like a week or two ago? To which I say, yes, almost.
For those of you who weren’t yet thinking, but now have looked up and noticed the similarities in the title, yes, it’s almost the same topic. In fact, there’s only a single word of difference.
This is a copy/paste of this week's BaBW post, which is available at my website!
In relation to my last post...
Please only read below if you PMed me regarding the last post. It...won't make much sense, and I thought using a blog would be better since two thirds the people I talked to are already gone from my PM box. 
"All the honors go to the tragedian for chewing up the scenery, while the comedian, who has to be much more subtle to be funny, is just loudly criticized when he doesn’t come through."

This'll be a short one today, guys. I'm actually still sick, but I really feel bad about missing last week's post (in truth, my whole week went by in a blur of "ack, bleck, cough cough cough, can't think, play Sonic Mania/X-Com 2). So you're getting a post today. Not the one I'd planned (my brain's not quite functional enough for the more in-depth companion piece
Short one today, readers. Mostly because I’m writing this between conference sessions on a Saturday, as I’ve got work shifts Monday and Tuesday, among other things, and so it’s literally a case of “Blitz this while I can!”
Welcome and Merry Christmas, readers, to this quite delayed Being a Better Writer post! First of all, it must be said, I'm sorry for the delays. I try to avoid letting these happen, but with the Christmas rush being what it has been ... I'm fighting to get a lot of things done.
Completely unexpected, by this point, but this post is a mirror of one found on my site!
It. Is. Time …
Welcome to Monday, readers! And to another installment of Being a Better Writer! Where today, we’re going to talk about something worldbuilding related: Money!
Went home yesterday because I was too sick to do much more than lay there and be miserable at my friend's place. My sadist of an aunt had me use nose-spray meant to clear sinuses. I only remembered how much it burns after I used it. Spent the next three hours groaning in bed as my head felt like it was going to pop like a balloon, and all the brain juice combusting at the same time
... Okay, that was a bit graphic even for me.
The moment you create something worthwhile, someone out there in the world will start to hate you. I wish this wasn’t the truth. I wish I could say that people were always going to be rational and capable of thought, but that’s not how it is.
Reaching the end of Topic List XI folks! Only a few more to go! But before we go diving into today’s Being a Better Writer post, a few bits of news to take care of.
Hey everyone. Apologies for the lateness of this post, but … Well, by now you probably know what’s going on at my end of things. I’ll have a dedicated post on things later this week, but for now, if you’re truly in the dark, there’s a brief summary complete with links in the lead-in to last week’s post.
At the risk of of perhaps revealing too much, I've decided to pull back the curtain and show how my work progresses into what it is. It starts simple, I approach it almost as a screenplay, and then, after a few rewrites, it gets constructed into something greater. This is the secret to how I write.
Picture this, if you will, for a moment. Imagine a young man, an author. Well, a writer who has just recently become an author, having successfully published his first book. He's just been invited to a big convention, where to his excitement, he will be on a panel alongside some of fantasy's greats in writing (if I'm being sparse on details here, forgive me as I don't remember all of them).
Extra Credits is a great Youtube series. In fact, at one point, they were even featured on my Links page. I tend to rotate things there from time to time, and maybe I should be giving them another go.
Welcome back to another Classic Being a Better Writer post! For those of you who are unfamiliar with these posts, they're essentially recall posts that look back on old BaBW posts and link to them for those newcomers who may have never seen them when they originated. BaBW has a pretty big backlog of articles, and with me having a goal of adding 4000+ words daily to my current book project (Jungle at the moment), Classic throwback posts can be a good way to
Welcome back, readers! It’s Monday, and you know what that means! Time for Being a Better Writer!
