Despite tech snafus and my nerves, we had a great webinar! That's a pic I took yesterday of Ezra chatting about plot tips.
I believe in practicing in the real world, so despite my critical, hyper-perfectionist mind that's annoyed at the tech issues, I just need to breath into knowing that I can still provide awesome value to you all. And if you get one thing from the webinar that you can apply to your writing, I am happy!
Here's what others have said:
"I learned that it is not enough to have a good general idea for your story. You must dig deeper to have a reason for why characters think and act as they do. Find out what motivates them." -- Laura Dogsmom, avid reader & writer
"I'm going to use the list of 20 for a couple of things over the next few days." -- Stephanie B., Writer
"I'm a debut author and appreciate all the wonderful tips [as] I prepare for my first book to be published." -- Desiree, writer
We love the List of 20! :)
RECORDING
I'm still wrangling with the tech to get you a recording of yesterday's webinar. I do now have a recording of last month's webinar, which is basically the same content.
