Where in the World is My Setting?
Let's talk about setting. And in particular, how to pick a setting. If you're anything like me, you've set your books in made up places vaguely based on somewhere you've been or somewhere you live.

The Craft of Writing – An Update

In the meantime, what do you… Continue reading The Craft of Writing – An Update
