Over the years of writing my blog, I have occasionally offered advice to fellow writers. Today I’ve decided to list my “best of” tips-for-writers. These include: how do I get my ideas, how I plot, getting past writers’ block, the importance of metaphors, and my thoughts on the new trend of publishers requiring “sensitivity readers” for many cross-cultural references. I’ve also included my favorite: some humor about researching novels, and then one rather personal one about how to hang in when life goes sideways on you. Enjoy! Pam
