Fixing Book Middles and Staying Motivated to Finish Our Book

Writers in the StormToday I’m at the Writers in the Storm blog (a great resource for writers, if you haven’t visited), talking a little about book middles.

Middles can be tough—not only is it where our plots might start getting a little saggy, they’re also where we might lose motivation to finish our book…and when Shiny New Idea syndrome is most likely to strike.

Hope you’ll join me there!
