The year is winding down but the writing and publishing industry just keeps bumpin’ down the road. Here’s the roundup of what you want to know:
Facebook Live: See you tomorrow night.
But first things, though! Gotta put in the but plug. (Heh. See what I did there?)
8 PM EST Wednesday night I’m giving away books, answering questions, chewing bubblegum, kicking ass, taking names in no particular order. The first ritual of Festivus is the airing of grievances! Nah, it’s not going to be like that. I’ll be taking questions and announcing a big giveaway. It’s a very special Christmas episode of All That Chazz. Follow the link above for more details.
Got a question? Email me at expartepress@gmail.com with the subject line FB Live and I’ll tee off.
Scrivener: Just a Word Processor Now?
I loved Scrivener. After I ran into a brick wall I liked it a lot less. It’s complicated. I mean, the software’s latest release is complicated and so are my feelings about it. Find out about that debacle and discover my truculent and trenchant suggestions at the link above.
Publishing: My Nervous Breakdown in Ten Steps
A question came up about the writing and publishing process. Here’s how I do it (with less emphasis on the crying than you might expect.)
The Top Three Movies About Writing
You’ve seen all the Christmas movies ten times over. Check out my top movies about writers doing the least cinematic act ever caught on celluloid and doing it well. I’ve got a killer top three, several runners-up and an also-ran (with John Goodman screaming.)
Surely some assertion in there will infuriate you, so that’s fun.
Whether I see you live or not live, merry Christmas, happy holidays and make time to read more books. We can never read enough books.
Cheers and all the best,
RCC
