True story, I am not a huge podcast person due to my love for Youtube. However, when I have listened to a podcast about writing, it's been Writing Excuses. They straight to the point and useful and I'd recommend it to anyone who hasn't visited them yet.⠀ ⠀ This is part of @jendwrites and @normalchey incentive for writers to interact with each other.

Swipe left for second image.⠀ ⠀ Building tension for me depends on what I am writing, but the key for it the possibility for failure and not being dramatic with it. The movie 2012 is a great example of overusing the possibility of failure to the point of boring the audience. So when you do so, use moderation along with emotional investment. ⠀ ⠀ I started an anime today where a character died in the first ten minutes which the rest of the cast took hard, but I couldn't care since I'd only seen her for two minutes. Why would I care if this character died or not? You have to get your readers invested in the character you plan on tormen--ahem--writing about in your book to get that heart pounding tension.⠀ ⠀ Oh, and don't any anything easy for your characters. Are they running away? Have them doing so under fire. Or let them break a leg. About to miss the bus? That bus better be their only chance of leaving the city before the mob finds them. Get what I am saying?⠀ ⠀ These are just my thoughts on adding tension. What are yours?⠀ ⠀ This is part of @jendwrites and @normalchey incentive for writers to interact with each other. Join in and connect with other writers and see what they have to say about these topics! I am loving it so far.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #amwrigting #igwritersdec #writersofinsta #writinglife #author #writer #book #bookstagram #writersofinstagram #authorsofinstagram #books #writing #inspiration #writerscommunity #bookworm #reader #literature #read #novel #writers https://www.instagram.com/p/BrAgrJFn28g/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=csx2cry9saxn

Not feeling the drawing mojo this evening, so pulled out an image I did a year ago.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #art #artist #drawing #painting #artwork #illustration #design #ink #sketch #arte #draw #artoftheday #digitalart #creative #picoftheday #beautiful #characterdesign #digitalillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq8nZAVHQHG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gt3d4u1jhtca

Swipe left for second picture.⠀ ⠀ Some of my writing friends tease me about my outline and how much effort I put into them, but they really help the process for me and let me find structure and plot issues early on. Now, my outline isn't a step-by-step guide, more like waymarkers I follow. The story always takes a life of it's own once the fingers get to work.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ IGWritersDec is part of @jendwrites and @normalchey incentive for writers to interact with each other. I love the idea! .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #amwrigting #igwritersdec #writersofinsta #writinglife (at Mesa, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq7UV2Cnokl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gm16qpyz53fj

27 Day of NaNoWriMo! ⠀The burn out around this time of year for NaNoWriMo is real. Juggling work, life, and writing (notice the order I put those in) isn't easy and takes serious time management. I've seen a lot of people struggling and become discouraged as all the posts for those who finished are showing up now. Just keep at it, you're doing great. .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #nanowrimo #writersofinstagram #amwriting #writer #writerscommunity #writersofig #ilovewriting #writerscorner #writersofinsta #writingcommunity #authorlife #preptober #amediting #writing #poetry #writerslife #nanoprep #book #write #writinglife #bookish #wip #love #booklove #bibliophile #ya #fiction #igbooks #yalitimmalzemesi https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqr6sLoDk8z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=lifelnjrn3zw

21 Day of NaNoWriMo! ⠀I've been in the situation where my fear and worry of what people would think if my work haulted my progress. Like a many authors, I suffer with anxiety--but I came to the idea I needed to love what I was doing more than what I feared. It helped me get back on track and and overcome those staring at the ceiling moments. So what do you really love about your current project? .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #nanowrimo #writersofinstagram #amwriting #writer #writerscommunity #writersofig #ilovewriting #writerscorner #writersofinsta #writingcommunity #authorlife #preptober #amediting #writing #poetry #writerslife #nanoprep #book #write #writinglife #bookish #wip #love #booklove #bibliophile #ya #fiction #igbooks #yalit (at Mesa, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqcbfa9HlzU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1eqq0k31srvgi
