Pause, Consider, Caption

June 18, 2009 /

I’m swamped with work so I’m taking the day off from writing a post. Why don’t you use this time to work on your entry for the Help Keep Stephen Off Prozac Writing Contest Extravaganza? The competition is really heating up. I’m thinking of posting a few teaser excerpts on the blog tomorrow.

The promised post on how to make your second novel better than your first will appear next week.

But since you took the time to click and visit the blog today, I have to give you something, right? So here’s a photo I snapped last summer in Chicago at the Lincoln Park Zoo. Hey, I know… why don’t you write a caption for the photo? (The button for adding comments is at the top of the post.) Will you win a huge prize? No, but you might have fun. That’s a prize in itself.

Unfortunately, Eldrich demonstrates poor de-gnoming technique by not bending at the knee. 2 faults.

Okay, here's the deal. This is a blog about writing fiction. I'll be updating it with wisdom and nonsense whenever I feel like it, muse and caffeine permitting. For more info about me, read the Who Am I? page.

If you're interested in hiring me to help with your novel, check out the Editorial Services page. By the way, it pays to plan ahead if you're hoping to work with a specific editor. If I'm that specific editor, click the link. I update my availability every few weeks. (This ends the advertising portion of the sidebar.)

If you want to say nice things, Email me @ noveldoctorinfo@gmail.com.

Oh, and I write short stories sometimes. They can be rather angsty. And yeah, I just made up that word. You can pretty much add the letter "y" to any word and it works. Click here if you want to read some of these stories.

Thanks for reading this sidebar. Now treat yourself to a cookie.
