greetings my fellow writers
and are you ready for the christmas frenzy to begin?
this year as a reward i will do slythindor100 25 days of christmas so i might not be able to keep my commenting with mini_fest, hd_owlpost up as much as i did in the last year, and well over at hd_erised, i still have fics from 14 to read *headdesks*
but NONETHELESS lets enjoy christmas time to the fullest!

• first on todays post here you go with 7 tips for wrting great first person narrators. which not only has great tips with nice examples but also gets your brain thinking about the difference of narrators, in other POVs too.



• next i have 10 Signs of Underdeveloped Characters in Your Novel for you. and boy that one is like a hit to my face, when i think about my owl, because some of the struggles i had and some of the very bad parts of my fic can be explained with this list *hides beneath the blanket*



• and finally for this week i have for you How to Write Arguments with Maximum Punch. this is not only a quick read, but a real life saviour, as some conversations do come across as too styled, and with these 2 simply tricks you can check it very quickly. give it a try!

may the muses be with you!
and remember all words are good words (even the words that are gone due to edition!



do you want more tips on one certain topic that i so far completely ignored? (i am posting here what catches my fancy in hope to motivate you to get words down- so if you have something you need to know or read or be motivated on, let me know and i shall dig around the net trying to find something for you)
do you have a tip you want to share, but are thinking: "meh"- just pm me or write me a mail smirkingcat[at]yandex. com and i shall check it out and include it in a future post [with your name or without it]

for all those who have left me some very kind comments over at the fandom-love meme let me tell you again: THANK YOU! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
