Tough Love
My SCBWI bulletin always arrives about 7-10 after everyone else. It is my understanding this is because it's sent bulk mail and they have to wait until they have enough mail out in CA with my zip code here in the middle of nowhere to justify sending it on its way (or something like that). Anyway, I can't verify it, but I have heard from a very reliable source that my article, Tough Love, is in the new bulletin. If you see it, let me know if it helped in any way or gave you something to think about!

I am writing, writing, writing, thus the lack of regular posts. 

cheers,
Joelle

Hi! I just read your "Tough Love" piece and wanted to find you on LJ. I hope you don't mind that I've friended you and [info]need_to_read.

I enjoyed your piece. You're right that, on one hand, this is Writing 101. However, I also have trouble remember this when I'm deep in the story with my character. And I really like your point about looking at the smaller moments and making them more tense. Thanks for the article!

Thanks! Glad I could help. Now if I can just remember to do all that stuff in this revision I'm working on right now!!! It's so easy to forget.

And of course it's okay that you friended me. I need all the friends I can get!

cheers,
Joelle
