Hot Topics: The Black Board
A weekly update from Shaula Evans, moderator of The Black Board:
The Black Board has been hopping this week as more GITS readers come to workshop their loglines in preparation for The Quest Initiative. Our logline workshop is free and everyone is welcome. If you’re getting your own Quest entry ready, we’re here to help! (The logline workshop is only visible once you log in. It’s kind of magic that way.)
Other hot topics on the Board this week:
How specific should character ages be?
Where to start when you’re creating characters
Dan Gordon’s breakthrough pre-writing advice
How do you get better at proofreading?
Rewriting: do you run a “Native Speaker Check”?
