Fiction writing = telling myself an untrue story

I rambled for 2 hours.

Being on the Internet provides people with the opportunity to reinvent themselves. The results aren't always great. I'm gonna talk about it.Plus politics and Donald Trump.Guest: Jilly James

CuriousExploxer asks: When fandoms such as Harry Potter (Pottermore) and Marvel (movie universe) release new facts, does the new information influence your WIP?  Would you change a completed story because of new information release in the fandom?

I came precariously close to getting thrown out of my favorite Kroger on Friday.

Unnatural attachments and people on the Internet

Daisy-may asks: So many of your stories are several volumes long.  How do you decide how long your idea is likely to be?  You've said you tend to work in threes and fives, but how do you make a plot bunny turn into five volumes?  It's a skill I vastly admire and, as a reader, more is definitely better(!) but how are you able to think so big? Side Note: BFP stands for BIG FUCKING PLOTGuest: Jilly JamesGot a question you'd like to listen to me sort of answer in a rambling fashion: Ask Me Anything

I read What Might Have Been this weekend. I frowned a lot, irritated by my choices and missed opportunities in scenes.Talking about my writing process.Guest: Jilly James

There comes a point in with every writer when the words won't come. Why I stopped forcing myself to try and the ramifications of non-creative time.

Tonight's guest, Jilly James, will be plotting during the podcast. Participation in the chatroom is welcome BUT don't be an asshole so if the Drifter says no to your idea -- do not keep harping on it.What does "plot drift" mean? It means I give myself or a guest a prompt and they plot on the fly without any prep. This will open up their thought process and allow you to learn how to explore and build a plot yourself in a very organic way.You do not have permission to use this plot for your own writing. Period. - - - -Vagina Cave FicMy Scorpion by Firehorse (Xander/Spike)
