Win a Free Copy of Writing Young Adult Fiction For Dummies

September 17, 2012

“Revision can be daunting. . . . Why not give your brain a break by breaking your task into focused chunks? With this approach, you’d pick a writing element, say plot, and ignore everything but that. Working Big Picture chunks to small detail chunks rather than page by page, you’d focus not on revising the story but on honing single elements. Gone is that scattered, overwhelmed feeling.” — Deborah Halverson

Author Laura Howard is hosting my guest post “Chunking Your Revision” today on her blog Finding Bliss. She’s also giving away a free copy of Writing Young Adult Fiction For Dummies, so if you want a copy but haven’t bought it yet, visit Finding Bliss and enter the giveaway.
