Opening Salvo: Writing a First Chapter That Guarantees Readers (and Editors) Keep Reading
Web Seminar Download

Every portion of a novel is important, but there is no more crucial chapter than the first one–because if it fails, it could very well be the last one the reader bothers to read. In this presentation, author Adam Sternbergh looks at openings that really work, ones that really don't, pitfalls to avoid and tips to implement.

How to Differentiate Characters
Web Seminar Download

Everyone talks about strong characterization in the industry, but very few people offer tools or a methodology to accomplish it. In this presentation, writers learn how to use tools such as the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator and Keirsey Temperament Sorter to craft 16 distinct character types that resonate true to real life, and build character profiles that will help prevent "personality drift" and "a cast of clones" in your fiction.

How to Write Realistic Action Thrillers
Web Seminar Download

Writing a military action thriller that will keep readers up late at night and waiting eagerly for the next book in your series involves far more than just researching what kind of guns your guys and girls will carry. In this presentation, author Jeff Wilson discusses how tactical decisions are really made, basic combat maneuvering, and what the men and women who work in this world are really like (Superman vs. the guy who takes the garbage to the curb on Thursday night).

Writing the Mystery Series
Web Seminar Download

It's one thing to write a book, but how do writers get a series going? In this presentation, writers learn how to keep a mystery alive through multiple books, whether like Sue Grafton through 25 novels or a simple trilogy. Learn the science of character arcs, not just in the book but throughout the entire series; how to keep a series familiar yet fresh and new at the same time; the importance of designing a theme that is worthy of multiple books; and knowing when to stop a series when that theme has run its course.

6 Steps to Writing Unputdownable Suspense
Web Seminar Download

In this presentation, writers look at psychological thrillers and unlock how to write suspense that readers can't put down. Author Karen Dionne discusses characters, explores writing techniques writers haven't used before, examines how writers can listen to their gut, mind for emotion, elevate universal themes, and more. In the end, writers learn how to write suspense that readers feel compelled to finish.

Plotting a Thriller
Web Seminar Download

Plot is essential to a good thriller. Not only do you need to have a good story, but your twists and turns need to be organic and fair to the audience (and the characters). Bestselling author Catherine McKenzie talks about how to craft a compelling thriller that will leave your audience guessing and turning the pages to find out what happened and why.

Fun with a late blooming omega
Format: Kindle
I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book. Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray. I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.

Madison Deserved Better
Format: Kindle
Madison was a beta...except she wasn't any longer. She was a late presenting Omega. And she was struggling. She was tall and thin, not tiny and curvy. She was opinionated. She was everything an Omega was not. After suffering through her first heat, her friends took her to Ardor, a club where Omegas came to safely find Alphas. She's not expecting much but then she connects with a sexy beta. And when she meets his Alphas, they set her body on fire. Maybe, she's found her no-strings-attached heat pack. Maybe, she's found something more. I could not connect with the characters in this book, so their story never resonated with me. And there was no love story; there was sex. Grey made it clear from the beginning that he had a true love and it was his beta boy, Rian. He went so far as to reassure Rian “Say the word, I’ll never touch her again. Lucas can put the babies in her. I only need you, beta boy”. So, Madison was there for babies, no emotions needed. Nice. No, thank you. I want the Omega to be the center of their world, not an incubator. Lucas and Rian weren't any better. After her heat, they let her leave. Not one of them made her feel valued. No one gave her a reason to stay or even offered a cuddle. And the sex didn't even come across as mind-blowing. Madison deserved better.

Pretty Darn Good
Format: Kindle
So I’ve been on a omega kick and this definitely hit the spot. Madison was frustrating at times with how she acted towards Lucas, Gray, and Rian. It was like she said towards the end, she didn’t believe she deserved nice things. It would have been nice to hear from her best friends again. They kind of were there in the beginning and the gone except for mention of text messages received from them. I feel like her friends would have been great help in encouraging Madison to go with the pack and never give Brent another chance because he was toxic. I loved Rian. His personality was awesome. His humor. His ability to make Madison comfortable whenever she was feeling overwhelmed. And the fact he fell for her and she fell for him first. They are cute together. I do feel like Lucas was the odd man out though. Like Lucas didn’t develop as much of a relationship with Madison. I would have really liked to see more development in the relationship between them. It was also the same with him and Rian. There is really no relationship displayed. Most of the relationship being displayed is between Rian and Gray. Nevertheless, I loved reading about the dynamic that came to fruition during the entirety of this story. Madison finally got her happiness. And Brent finally got punched in the face. Everyone got exactly what they deserve.
