In which the Bards address several questions from Twitter:
* should I create an LLC as an author?
* how do you measure daily progress when doing revisions?
* do you have tips for making a character's success feel earned?
* what are your highs and lows as published authors?
We continue our SUPER SPECIAL BONUS BOOK PLOTTING SEGMENT in which we start from nothing to build out a book idea to show you how pro authors flesh out the bones of a story. Week 1, we chose a genre, protagonist, and two secondary characters. Week 2, we talked about naming conventions for the book and created three more secondary characters. This week, we name the rest of our characters and discuss our antagonist and how to decide if something is a standalone or part of a series. Next week: plotting!
And, as always, we cover Things That Will Blow Your Mind.
Got a question on writing, publishing, books, comics, or the best kind of cocktail or gluten free goodies to power your creativity? Ask us on Twitter with hashtag #askthebards!
