Let's Write A New Novel Titled: The Dead Candidate

On March 31, 2011, in Current Readings, Wilfried F. Voss, Writing & Publishing, by Editor

I believe, it would be pure fun to write about the background activities of the MYMN (Maybe Yes, Maybe No) party waiting for their candidate, who lies in a coma, to either die or run for election, while the KEA (Kill ‘em All) party is having a ball raising funds for their candidate.

On March 17, 2011, in Business, Marketing, Writing Tips, by Editor

On February 23, 2011, in Ariel Ceylan, Guest Writers, Writing & Publishing, by Misc. Contributions

Protagonists are people, people with drama, tragedies, monetary concerns, health concerns, and the like.

Developing the Protagonist into a person, not a character, will make your Protagonist believable.

Lorem Ipsum – I Couldn't Have Said It Any Better…

On February 17, 2011, in Lifestyle, Neurotica, Writing & Publishing, by Editor

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged.

On February 3, 2011, in Marketing, Writing & Publishing, Writing Tips, by Editor

Something I learned early on in this industry is that publishing, like any other industry, is full of scams. Not everyone is unethical; however, there are a certain number of people who prey on someone’s desire for success by offering them pie-in-the-sky promises they can never fulfill.

Contacting Literary Agents and R-E-E-JECTED

On January 3, 2011, in Guest Writers, Lorelei Bell, Writing & Publishing, by Lorelei Bell

This post is not meant to discourage anyone. This is merely to give those of you who have stumbled to my blog and are part of the writing community, a look into a portion—just a portion—of what I have gone through (like every writer out there), trying to get a publisher, or an agent.

Something Nebulous Within

On November 13, 2010, in Guest Writers, Lorelei Bell, Writing & Publishing, by Lorelei Bell

We as writers have what I like to call something nebulous within, and when we begin some new writing project we only partially know what we want to do with it. It’s fun, and at the same time a little scary. We don’t want to fail, we fear we will. Fear of failier, fear of not finishing something that we started. Just plain old fear of not being able, after all the work, get it published.
