The Writing Craft

Message from Melissa Hamilton

We are certainly excited about The Writing Craft category on RomanceEverAfter.com. 

Developing the skill to write both stories and nonfiction articles takes knowledge, application of that information, and experience.  Depending on your interest, The Writing Craft category will give you a wide range of resources to become a more knowledgeable reader and/or writer.

Topics Under Discussion

In addition to standard writing and publishing issues, we will discuss specific details about the writing craft.  These topics may include--

Selecting the right name for your characters
How to write an opening paragraph to lure in the reader
Words selection for word specialists

Building a storehouse of knowledge in the craft of writing will give you the edge as both a reader and writer.

Interviews With Individuals In the Industry

The "real world" is always different from the world presented in books.  This is the purpose of The Writing Craft presenting interviews from individuals in the writing and publishing industry including publishers, editors, agents, marketing persons, even cover models.  You can view these interviews as specialized mentors to assist you in your self-development as a writer and reader.
