I'm on @WritersDigest talking about tackling character consistency today. Drop on by to win Polish Your Fiction!

Hope you all had a fab weekend!

Did you watch the World Cup Final last night? Despite being half German, and living in Greece, I was rooting for Argentina. But every single team I root for ends up losing. Perhaps their loss is all my fault. :-)

On a more positive note, I'm on Writer's Digest today, talking about tackling character consistency. I'm also giving away a copy of Polish Your Fiction!

  1. I had to be logged in as a member to comment, which I'm not, so I'll comment here. I liked the idea of writing down all the characters' traits and combing the manuscript to make sure those traits are consistent. Excellent suggestion.
