Writing Excuses

by on Oct.10, 2009, under Writing

Just a note to people reading the blog or following me on twitter-

I’m writing enough that I’m now starting to get heavily opinionated on writing1, and I’m starting to take this out on the comments threads for Writing Excuses. (If you don’t listen to Writing Excuses yet and you write or script anything, you need to start. Not only do I think it’s awesome, I’ve followed it since before it had seasons, and it also won a parsec award for being a sock-rocking podcast.)

If you’re interested in hearing my opinions on how I write or how other people should write, check out the comment threads with me. The latest is on writing emotions and managing your emotions as a writer.

1That is, I’m writing enough that I’d actually like to get published some day. I’m still not writing as much as I’d need to to make a living from my writing, which is something I’m working on. ;)

    I’ve never heard of Writing Excuses before, but I am clicking over the check it out now. Thanks.

    It’s by far the best podcast about writing I’ve heard, and it’s what got me back into the game. They tend to focus on genre fiction, (Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror) but most of it is transferable to any other genre, it’s just a matter of deconstructing the advice. :)

    It probably helps that it’s short too, so if you commute or jog or something it’s in very convenient 15-20min chunks.
