If you’re writing about a character, if he’s a powerful character, unless you give him vulnerability I don’t think he’ll be as interesting to the reader.
–STAN LEE, interview, Mar. 13, 2006
Victories
Dylan submitted a story to torque press. They refuse to admit his existence.
Ciuin is winning.
News
From the LA writers group, what’s in it for the critiquer?
An article on agency agreements.
Housekeeping
First: A huge thank-you to Dylan for taking over the website from George.
Second: Starting next week, we will be going to 2 critiques a week. This is in response to complaints that we are hitting high word counts some weeks and low critique requests for the last scheduling session. After a couple sessions at this pace, we will reevaluate and decide how to tweak the system. Maybe we need to go back to three and set a lower, definite maximum?
