Theory: Least rejectable doctrine in the group Christian Writings: 6 years, 1 month ago
I have had a thought derived from the concept of agnosis which I am calling the least rejectable doctrine. In this post, I would like to set out a concept for doctrine selection which approaches being both […]

The best reason to have Amazon Prime. The only reason maybe.

Seriously though, how to come up with ideas for post day in day out?

Try it. What is the worst that can happen? You have to change it back. That does not seem so bad.

What would you think if I told you that the way to sell more books is to never promote your books?
You probably think I have lost the plot. Yet it is true. The worst think we authors do is try to promote our […]

I have been looking at maybe changing the front page of Author Buzz to be the activity stream and moving the blog posts to a secondary page.
What do you think? Would this make Author Buzz more social and promote everyone’s blogs more evenly?

I am all out of quotes from UK authors for the blog. Please suggest some more authors to look up or quotes I can use.
Thank you in advance.

Matthew Brown replied to the topic What is your take on prologues? in the forum Aspiring Authors 6 years, 2 months ago
I apologise for not answering sooner.
My experience is that prologues have their place but they are very easy to abuse (which spoils a story). If you know what you are doing – setting up a second question and promise not addressed in chapter one – then use them. Otherwise, leave it alone until you know what you are doing.
That said, never ever…Read more

Christian Writer replied to the topic How did you develop the idea for your current work in progress? in the forum General Chat 6 years, 2 months ago
I found myself writing long essays on a group of related subjects and realised I had the beginnings of a book.

Christian Writer replied to the topic Say hello to everyone in the forum General Chat 6 years, 2 months ago
My story starts in a Baptist church so most of my writing is about Christianity. I’ve been exploring Judaism lately but it is slow going because I need to unlearn a few things first.
(I do not think the forum supports @ replies.)

Just realised I never replied to this one.
Hello, I’m Jeff. Most of what I write is rubbish and not fit to be seen. I like writing and hope to be good at it one day.

I will see what I can do. No promises on time scale.
If anyone wants to write to these topics, I’d be happy to publish it.

Am so glad it isn’t just me what types “oft he” instead of “of the” sometimes.
That should be a book.

Matthew Brown replied to the topic Where do you start writing a novel? in the forum Aspiring Authors 6 years, 2 months ago
My advice is to skip to the part you are excited to write. There is no rule that says you have to write the beginning first. If your mind is racing about the middle, write that. The enthusiasm will show through in your writing and make it a pleasure to read (and to write).
By the time you are done with the middle, you will have a better idea of…Read more
