Episode 18: Plot Holes Make for Bad Reading

I Do What I Want! ·

2023/02/13

Plot holes inevitably will happen to all writers. It's natural to get caught up in one aspect of your story and accidentally forget about that one character...or continent.

Episode 17: Character Study - The Wizard Tim

I Do What I Want! ·

2023/01/30

Tim is one of my favorite characters to write, even though I've never had anyone tell me he was their favorite character to read. I love him, and honestly, he's absolutely integral to my plots in the Raashan series. Couldn't do it without him, really. That's probably why I like writing him so much.Writing Workshop on February 25th: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/writing-workshop-character-development-tickets-524151369857Instagram: @hollisjomccollum
