The Recluse — An Introspective Exercise
As someone whose head is filled with characters and stories, I had this preconception that you’d only write your characters if a) you’re creating a character sheet or b) you’re writing book/story content. I see now how limiting this idea was.
What Remains After It Burns
The first exerise in my mentorship with author Natasha Hastings. Prompt: a queen is under arrest for murder. Many loyal to her believe she is innocent, but her enemies believe she is a monster. Choose a scene to focus on surrounding this idea, whether it is her alone in a cell, or on trial, or speaking in secret to one of her loyal supporters, or something else entirely. Is she innocent? Is she guilty? Only you can tell us.
Winds that bring change
A few words to share as I venture into a new phase, and it’s not really (only) to do with being thirty.
