Great Stuff for Writers, May 20, 2013

...d) has an interesting poll question in How Do You Plan to Publish Your Work-in-Progress? After a week of polling, almost half (45%) of the 721 respondents consider traditional publishing their first preference. Almost quarter each consider self-publishing their first choice or will ignore it completely. Less than 10% intend to ignore traditional publishing. What about you? One of the on-going problems with indie publishing is that it’s been all bu...Read More

Uncovering the Cover

...ditional fee? Do they do POD covers as well as ebooks? And of course, what do they charge and how and when do they want to be paid? So, that process has gotten me from 53 candidates down to 10. Now I’m into the lather-rinse-repeat cycle of looking at portfolios, services, and prices. Decisions, decisions. Got any recommendations?

If Gene Therapy Could Save Your Life, Would You Take It?

...her works or it’s clear that it won’t. The same appears to be true when it comes to these gene-mod treatments. It’s interesting to me that there’s been little push-back against these kinds of treatments, which involve modifying a cell’s genes, as compared to the other kinds of genetic modifications scientists are experimenting with. See my previous post for some examples of this. Maybe it’s because there’s a perception that these kinds of treatmen...Read More

Critique Technique, Part 59 — The End

...gotten himself wrapped up in a gold theft and smuggling scheme, to the down-on-their-luck Nigerian family who’d hatched the plot, to the ruthless Mafia boss who wanted the gold for himself—all ended up living happily ever after, with their storylines tied up in pretty bows. Um, no. The ex-pat, sure. He was the hero of the story and managed by pluck and luck to get himself out of a bad bind. The family, maybe. At least their story as the antagonist...Read More

Genes, Behaviors, and the Gaps in Our Knowledge

...ook at more gene variants and will factor in behavior too. Does “person A” come from a culture where people eat a lot of high-fat foods? Factor that in. Does their family live that life, or have they switched to healthier eating habits? Factor that in too. This could be a case where genes establish tendencies but not destiny. This kind of work defines gaps in scientists’ knowledge that need to be filled in. The study’s main benefit might actually...Read More

Measles, the Anti-Vax Movement, and the Moral Imperative

...y different than the anti-vax community they’re already in, that us-against-the-world community. One that reconnects them to the wider world, that leads them to accept that they have a moral responsibility not only to themselves and their own families but to all of the people around them. I’m not sure where that change begins, or how, although I’m pretty sure it does not begin with a conversation about vaccination. The first vaccination has to be...Read More

Finding the Flow Again

...l of Books and author of The Dreamers, a novel that also deals with a world-wide plague, for giving me the idea for a fresh approach. Walker’s book has two story-lines, which she wrote independently, then blended. While Wild Spread has five major characters, each of whom has their own story-line, my heroine, Janet Hogan, is supposed to be the central one. Therein lay the problem with the outline (and maybe with Act I of the book too): too much of...Read More

The Submission Waiting Game

...rab the reader. Maybe they’re tired. Maybe they had a fight with their girl- or boyfriend or spouse and they’re in a bad mood. Maybe they’re sick. Maybe it’s not immediately obvious why or how this piece is right for this market. Maybe it isn’t right at all. Agents and editors, if pressed, will admit that they reject pieces left and right, every day. In the book publishing business, if the query letter doesn’t connect with them, they never even se...Read More

Give It Up, Part 3

...have to worry so much about that. And water can be boiled over a fire and filtered to remove the worst of the contaminants, if it comes to that. Rainwater is plentiful, most places, and free. Snowmelt, too. They’re where all that river and reservoir water that comes out of our taps comes from, anyway. So if the electrical grid was running but limited, food refrigeration is the one technology I’d keep. What about you? The comment box hasn’t been t...Read More

Give It Up, Part 2

...ng, suddenly the options become very limited. Primitive in a major way. Pre-stone-age. It’s a scary thought. Maybe next time I’ll back this off a little, let us keep electricity. What do you think? Could you manage if EVERY kind of technology in your life suddenly went away, except for one thing? Fortunately, the technology of the comment box is still working (so far as I know). Lots of ways you can share this: Twitter Facebook LinkedIn Email Prin...Read More
