I've learned a quite many things, especially in writing articles of it, plus it is my own quick reference guide if I need help on something.<br /><br />This year, like last year, I have devoted AtoZ Challenge to Literary Terms from Unlikely Sources.

I own many craft books and I gain a wealth of knowledge from people like you and the many other published authors (Jami Gold, Larry Brooks, Martha Alderson, James Scott Bell, C.J.Lyons, Holly Lisle, Mary Buckham, Angela Ackerman, Becca Puglisi, Steven James, Janice Hardy, Susan Denard, Deb Dixon, Clarissa Drapper, Les Edgerton, Nathan Bransford, Hallie Ephron, James N. Frey, Brenda Drake, Jane Friedman, Elizabeth George, Rayne Hall, Jodi Henley, C.S. Lakin, Dr. D.P. Lyle, Donald Maass, Jordan McCollum, Pam Mc Cutcheon, Virginia Mixon, Jill Elizabeth Nelson, Eugene Orlando, Darcy Pattison, Alicis Rasley, Julie Smith, Alexandra Sokoloff, Bob Mayer, Camy Tang, Susan May Warren, Kim Weiland, Chuck Wendig, Lori Wilde, Cathy Yardley, Jessica Bell , Roz Morris and Rachel Aaron) are just some of the most helpful that popped into my head. I don't know what writer's did before the internet.<br /><br />As a lawyer we are required to obtain a certain number of CLE (Continuing Legal Education) hours at live seminar each year. I believe it is the same for doctors, nurses, CPA's and other professions. I realize that it would be impossible to make such a requirement for authors, but that shouldn't stop us from creating our own self imposed continuing educational requirements.<br /><br />Perfect post.Melissa Sugarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16268333458796847721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4137802664622571509.post-29057175919395065002015-04-06T15:46:57.328-05:002015-04-06T15:46:57.328-05:00Read, read, read, and read some more.

Experiment. And if you write a particular genre, get feedback from one or two readers who don't normally read that genre.

I couldn't agree more! I have been learning how to write for what feels like eternity. The best experience I had was actually in university. The screenwriting course taught us how to learn from other writers - how to watch a TV show or film and pick out the tricks, how to breakdown a script and learn the craft, and how to apply everything we learn to our own stories. More than a decade later, I still do this, but with novels. There's so much to learn that I'm sure I will be devouring writing craft books and blogs for my entire life!<br /><br />Thanks for the great post!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08180048355518579006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4137802664622571509.post-38786742483265335302015-04-06T14:50:25.342-05:002015-04-06T14:50:25.342-05:00Read what you like to write.
