Dreams Do Come True…when you want it.

Posted by Clarissa Yip on Aug 27, 2010 in Bragging Rights, Goals, Life, Writing

   When I was a little girl, I used to bury my head in books all the time, from Babysitter's Club Series to R.L. Stine horrors, but my favorites were still romances. With an older sister, who read as fast as she could buy them, I was always hiding and waiting for her to come [...]

Peek or Peak

Posted by Penny Dune on Feb 28, 2010 in Life

Wow, why does this always get me? I really have to think about which one I’m supposed to be using. What about you? Do you have a quirky word? What is it? My curiosity is peeked…or is it peaked???

One lump or two?

Posted by Silke on Sep 4, 2009 in Life

Yeah, right. I’m not talking about sugar in coffee.

There appears to be this great big misconception that it’s two spaces after a period.
It used to be two spaces.
It changed.

I love dialogue. Love, love, love. If I go back to all my old favorites, Arsenic and Old Lace…Abbott and Costello, Breakfast at Tiffany’s…. Bringing up Baby. I could go on. The thing about those old movies is that they would have collapsed without good dialogue.  The time when movies were based on really good [...]

Easy or Hard?

Posted by Jenn on May 24, 2009 in Writing

Why is it that some manuscripts hop along at a fast pace, stopping to smell the daisies at times, and other manuscripts fall into the pond and sink to the bottom? Is it a better understanding of the characters, the plot, all of the above? Could it be the voice and/or genre? My current ms [...]
