Tools of the Trade

Hello Travellers,

Just some fun this week.

As you may have notice from a previous blog post, I like pens. So, for a Christmas gift one year I was given these:

They’re not the easiest to write with (the balance is off 😉 ), but they are fun to have. Definitely.

These don’t have names, but they have their part fixing the inner workings of my WIP.

Fixer of the first edits – finding sizes big and small, from changing a character’s position in the story to moving scenes around and working around the holes in a story.

All rounder – tightening loose ends, fixing sentence structure and tweaking the rhythm of the story.

Ideas wrangler – cuts out stubborn plot points (that don’t belong) and ‘darlings’, as well as wrestling with under-worked characters until they are suitably fleshed out.

 

Well, that’s my fun. What’s yours?
