Advice for that Bad Draft
Some words of wisdom from Carol Gray in This Draft Sucks for that moment every writer faces – the realization (right or wrong) that your writing is very, very bad.

Kelly Robertson was lucky enough to interview Crystal King in How to Start Building a Social Media Presence for some great ideas on how to get that social media platform up and running. Put that on your 2015 New Year’s resolution list.
The Editors at Dead Darlings
Dead Darlings is devoted to celebrating the novel, from the process of creation through revision, promotion and publication. The authors, alumni from GrubStreet Boston’s Novel Incubator, have gathered to provide support for all novelists: aspiring, developing or successful. Writing is best when it has the support of a community, when novelists share their experiences.
