The drawn-out dream
I was reading a writing article which talked about not ending your book with a cliché. The article then went on to list some of them. One of them struck a cord with me, this was the drawn out dream, meaning at the end of the book your protagonist wakes up and finds out the…
Statement of purpose
As part of my writing journey I have finally started to work through one of the “how to” books I have owned for a long time. One of the things the author says is a good thing to do is to come up with a statement of purpose, something to inspire me to carry on,…
