Dear authors: PLEASE take your address and phone number out of your manuscripts. You do not need to include that information (if Contracts need it, they will ask) and it’s a genuine data security issue.

Is it in your standard writing template? Delete it! Go, go, do it now!

I'd love to connect with more writers and indie authors here. I enjoy writing and helping authors with editing, feedback and book promotion.

What are you working on at the moment?

Back on the Node Seven rewrite tonight and it feels absolutely amazing! Writing a sequel is a whole new challenge though, especially with all the loose threads from Fallow waiting to be tied up. Any series writers out there, how do you keep track of it all? ✍️📚✨ #writing #sequel #novel #authors

Whether you agree or not, this is why authors/property owners of franchises cannot (easily) sue fanfic writers (and also why no mention of making $$ on writing fanfic is allowed on AO3, to prevent legal action.)

In case you missed it, I posted some tips on time management for authors, and how to fit writing into your busy schedule.
Writing is incredibly time consuming. And you have a day job and errands to run and chores to do. So how do you find enough writing time to complete a whole novel?

If you're trying to find time for writing, here are some places to look.

Building on my esteemed colleague @zackdavisson.com's comments about translators being the authors of the work you are reading as I spoke to a translation class... I commented that while translation and writing are art, editing is a negotiation.

A lot of our nerd authors would kinda like to be writing a Wikipedia article.
