DeleteThe link to the word count article is handy for writers. It's best to check guidelines from publishers (and agents) to get a good feel than obtain advice not well researched.
ReplyDeleteHey, Terry! Very true. Guidelines vary from publisher to publisher.
DeleteOnce again, so many great links! I agree a lot with the first one, about making characters angry. Then again, that may be because I'm mean and love to torture my characters any way I can, and finding ways to irritate them is one of the ways I can achieve that. XD
ReplyDeleteWe show our characters we love them by making them suffer, right? Something twisted about that. haha
DeleteYes, he's top secret! lol
