And when they take a vacation, they spend part of the time staying up to speed on email and other work elements.

When I was a young teenager, Mad Max movies were all the rage. I had to see each one when it came out, partly because they were superb action flicks and partly because I had a huge crush on Mel Gibson. That was before I found out Gibson was a raging anti-Semite, but that’s another post.

Creating Compelling & Engaging Characters: What Makes Readers Love 'Em or Hate 'Em

What makes your readers love your main character and hate your protagonist? It’s the classic Good vs. Evil scenario. When you create a main character readers empathize with and an antagonist who is really bad news, they will root for the good guy to win every time. You want your readers to feel strong emotions about your characters, one way or another.

Then, throughout the story, it becomes clear why the main character had to do those bad things and we sympathize with him or her.

Are you ready for NaNoWriMo?

It’s the question most asked this time of year, right before National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) that takes over the month of November every year.

If this is your first time doing NaNoWriMo, don’t stress out too much about it. It’s a huge learning process where you’ll discover what’s most important for you to be able to produce content on a continual basis to move forward towards your end goal of 50,000 words in 30 days.

The biggest lesson I’ve learned over the years is that it’s not so much about the end result. What you have at the end of 30 days will in no shape or form be a novel ready to print. Depending on your genre, novels can be 80,000 words and up. Just understand: you won’t be finished with it on November 30th.
