FOR WRITERS

Check out these links to find resources on the writing process and inspiration for your own creative explorations. Especially useful to writers, I hope, is “A Special Essay for Writers”. There are also many helpful videos, which discuss characters, fantasy, and inspiration – as well as links to articles and blogs about the challenges and joys of writing. In addition, the Q & A provides extra insight into my own quirky writing process … from how I get my ideas to what I’ve learned from the wizard Merlin.

The videos available below are just a sample of my videos on writing. Visit my YouTube channel for more videos for writers and more about writing what you love (from the TAB Video Collection).

One of the great things about being a writer is that writing allows me to experience, to explore, anything I want.

As a writer I can find the voice of a twelve year old girl, be an ancient stone, or become a young wizard. I can experience life in the most wondrous ways.
If I’m lucky enough to find a character who has lots of richness and depth, such as Kate or Rhia or Merlin, then as the character grows, so do I.
