Helpful Website
Today I wanted to talk about one of the web-sites I found extremely valuable while writing my first novel: Writers Helping Writers. This website has a lot of valuable tools, but what I used the most is the Thesaurus Collection.
This section includes "hundreds of descriptive entries to help you add incredible texture and authenticity to your writing". There are multiple topics to aid you including character traits, physical attributes, emotions, settings, weather, symbolism and more. If you are stumped on how to convey an emotion just right or need a descriptive term for a trait your character has, this is the place to go. Angela and Becca have put together a good website that includes writers tools, webinars, workshops and other resources for writers. I definitely recommend you check it out!
I'm off to write now. With my move, I've gotten completely behind and need to catch up on word count. I know I have to just keep writing!
