Some Books on Writing That Don’t Really Exist
8 Responses to “Some Books on Writing That Don’t Really Exist”
Why am I here and what is this blog about anyway?
Okay, here's the deal. This is a blog about writing fiction. I'll be updating it with wisdom and foolishness three to five times a week, muse and caffeine permitting. In case you're wondering, no, I'm not a real doctor, though I sometimes watch reruns of the sitcom Scrubs. I do have more than 20 years of editorial experience, which I suspect is more relevant to my selection of "noveldoctor" as a nom de plume. But lest I come across as trying to sound smarter than I really am, I'll just tell you up front that I mostly chose "noveldoctor" because it sounds cool and is easy to remember and no one else had taken it yet. (And also because "fiction-editor-with-good-instincts-on-what-makes-a-novel-great" seemed a bit excessive.) For more info about me, read the Stephen Who? page. If you're interested in hiring me to help with your novel, check out the Editorial Services page. (This ends the advertising portion of the sidebar intro.) If you want to say nice things, Email me. I hope you will read and comment on my blogposts. I can't promise daily brilliance, but if my words inspire, challenge, entertain, or confound you even a little bit, isn't that enough? Thanks for reading this sidebar. Now treat yourself to a cookie.Archives

HA! King’s takes the cake.
Sorry, but this post was just begging for a cliche.
