Writers Ink NonFiction is hosting the podcast The Write Focus.
As always, Writers Ink hits the reset button in the autumn months. The Write Focus will post every Wednesday. The first episodes are running under 15 minutes (with one exception), but gradually they will stretch toward 20 to 25 minutes, long enough to prep dinner or commute to/from work or fold laundry or take a walk.
Our two inaugural episodes features 7 Newbie Writer Mistakes and 3 Notta Mistakes. Everything in these two episodes is based on experiences of our own Writers Ink writers!
As the podcast advances, we are BookPodding or BookTubing, depending on your choice of media.
Listen to the podcasts on Podbean or on youtube or read the transcripts on thewritefocus.blogspot.com
Here are the podcast links for 7 Newbie Writer Mistakes ::
Writers Ink Non-Fiction is continuing the series of posts about Advice to Newbie Writers.
We’ve had 7 Newbie Mistakes (July).
3 Newbie Notta Mistakes (August).
September launched Writing Process Information. The Newbie Writer wrote a second email asking for advice. We offered Live and Learn on 9/5, Epic Writer Journey on 9/15, and Revision on 9/25. Check out the 9/1 post at this link, then continue on.
In the recently-revived war between wizards and sorcerers, the Enclave wizards enlist the aid of Rhoghieri, wielders of the four base elements who live in Havens. The sorcerers have enslaved wyre, animal shifters who became outcasts when the wizards declared them anathema.
The Faeron, who withdrew when the dragons were defeated and nearly extinguished from the world, have returned to an uneasy alliance with the wizards—for the dragons did not die out centuries ago. Those nearly-mythic creatures are searching for a way to return so they can wreck vengeance on the Faeron and the wizards who exiled them.
