Some good links!

On Jeannie Frost’s livejournal she gives aspiring authors a chance to see that even if you are published you never stop learning to working to make yourself better. Read some of her articles as well as a short scene from “One Foot in the Grave“. Her website is under construction but is already looking good!

Also you might want to go over and bookmark the New ReleasesÂ 2008Â page on Urban Fantasy Land. Then start saving your money because you’re going to need it!

I’m on a roll!

The Plot Synopsis Project

kimiko — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 03:32:55 +0000

While reading my writing feeds, I came across someone’s post about The Plot Synopsis Project. I followed the link and found a really great post by Joshua Palmatier who created the idea of the Project. The plan is to offer sample synopsis from authors who’s work was sold AND/or from authors on how they sold their story without a synopsis.

I skimmed the rest of the blog and there are other posts that look just as useful! Take a peek.
