Is this a lot?? It felt like a lot! And I'm not saying the year is over, but I have turned back to my computer after taking too much time off after reading and analyzing so many different authors' crafts. I tried to read these books, not just as a reader but as a writer- thinking what can I learn from these people to create a better story, character, better book hangover? And I'd like to think I accomplished that.
Back to my manuscript.....
