      I don’t get it. What’s the difference?

      I’ve no idea. I read it over and look for mistakes.

      Does that help?

      Writing tips? I’m in!!

      If your character’s conversations are too much like a radio script, give your character something to fiddle with.

      If youir chapter is too shart or you desperately need to pad word count, make two characters argue about something. It is good if you need them to miss something obvious for “plot reasons”.

      Give every character a flaw. The more crippling the beter.

      When the hero does something bad for good reasons, give them epic consequences. You can get soooooooo much plot out of bad choices that come back to bite your characters.

      If you’re tired and the plot is exciting, go to bed. You’ll wake up still wanting to write.

      Small.

      I refuse to buy new books until I have read the ones I’m on. That’s what wishlists are for.

      My doctor. Nothing scary just have a question to ask.

      I can never do anything when I’m waiting for a call. My brain gets blocked by the waiting. Probably an ADHD thing TBH. Thing is, I got The Martian on my table half read but I have no ability to can.
