Tess Gerritsen's Advice to Writers
The Shit No One Tells You About Writing - Un podcast de Bianca Marais, Carly Watters and CeCe Lyra - Les jeudis
In today's Books with Hooks , Carly and CeCe each critique two query letters. In the process, they discuss stories with magical elements and why the author chooses that specific world as the vehicle for the story; the importance of not revealing too much about a character’s ending state of interiority in a query letter; creating believable inner life; delivering on humor; and writing a dual author query.After which, Bianca chats with Tess Gerritsen, NYT bestselling author of Listen to Me about transitioning from romantic suspense to medical thrillers and crime novels; the secret to her longevity in a difficult industry; changing publishers to avoid the death spiral; what it’s like spending 22 years with the same characters; approaching characterization; including subtle social commentary in your novels; and her advice for emerging writers.
