Nathan Bransford - The Forums

Redid my novel summary and posted it to get ripped apart. I haven't been posting in a while, so I'll be surprised if anyone actually reads it! :D

The Making of Genres and the Quest

***Next month I will be starting an Interview series. The guest list includes: Joan Wolf, Dale Brown, Tawna Fenske, the Forums own Bryan"Ink"Russell, and two guys that have something to do with Elvis and Myron as lead Characters. There will be a slew of agents, editors and MAYBE one publisher (These guys are tough).

The format will be to represent as many genres as I can, each by two authors, one successful and one rising star, on consecutive days.

All the Best!

Quick look at what writing means to me. I didn't know it would be so hard. I didn't know I would love it so much.

Ironically, I should not have taken the time to write that one, but oh well. ;)

I re-posted an old post about naming characters as part of my blogiversary celebration. I'll be doing so throughout the month, but there will also be new content.

"The Interviews and Why"

I've posted a partial list of guests. Some of my favorite authors made the list.

Peter Ginna, Publisher and Executive editor of Bloomsbury Press gave an outstanding interview. December 13th is post date.

"Trunk" books and why we should treat them with respect. Just a short one, I'm afraid.
