Do you need a logline for your novel? I thought they were just for movies. 
Typically they are, but they are also very helpful for books too. This week Jodi explains why writing a logline not only helps you with your elevator pitch and hook, but also makes sure your story clearly contains all the major elements required for a page-turning story. 
PS. You might need a pen and paper to take notes!

I feel like this week's episode is for every writer out there. If you've ever felt like your words are wasted, listen up! (Teaser: they're not). In answering this question I'll talk about my own experiences with 'wasted words', and offer a few suggestions on what to do before you decide to put aside a manuscript.
