Bio

I am writing a historical fantasy novel, and it is going so well that I am avoiding it by being on Storium again.

Thanks for asking.

Principles

  • Good writing should be understandable. That is, it should be clear even when it is not simple.
  • Metaphors should illuminate rather than obscure. If your poetic imagery makes it harder for the reader to follow the events or ideas in a scene, take it out.
  • Character and plot are intertwined. Character actions drive the plot; plot events develop the characters.
  • When editing, take out anything that you only wrote to show off how clever you are. People are generally less impressed by that sort of thing than you expect.
  • Don’t follow writing advice unless it resonates with you. Write the book/story/post you want to write.
