#Spooktober Chapter 11: Lovely Villains
This week, Lydia and Sandy have prepared a special #Spooktober edition of the podcast. We are going to take some time and think about villains, baddies, dubious characters, and every other type of personality you could use in your story to create a multi-layered narrative. After all… not every bad guy is truly just a bad guy… or are they?

Chapter 10: The Perfect Pitch
This week, Lydia and I will take you through the process of breaking down your work into the bare building blocks of the narration. We slim it down even further than a synopsis, and we’ll go even beyond that: at the length of a twitter pitch.

Chapter 9: The Writer's Toolbox
This week, we are looking at the tools a writer must arm himself with if he wishes to conquer the process of writing that dreaded first draft, first and final edits, cover design, promotional work, and everything else that has become an integrated part of the publishing industry over the course of a couple of years. We’ll give you tips on time management, how to work with social media, marketing and the famous Writer’s Kit as we discussed in our previous Industry Insights.

Chapter 7: Judge a Book By Its Cover
This week, we are judging books by their covers, and although this expression is used to prevent people from misjudging others, in the publishing industry a cover often tells you a lot about the book itself. There are simple covers, extravagant covers, artwork covers, automatically generated covers… There are so many options nowadays, but how do you find a cover that fits your project? And how do you decide if the quality is right if you hire someone to make a cover for you? In today’s episode, Lydia and I will shine some light on the subject and we’ll give you some tips and tricks to get the cover design for your book JUST right.

Crutches, also known as crutch words or filler words, are very common in the writing world.

This episode, we’ll spend some time giving you tips and tricks on how to recognize your own crutch words, and what you could do to easily edit them out of your drafts.
