Iriarte Files--Writer's Nightmare: May 2011
http://vickcorrenagencyfiles.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Iriarte Files- Writer's Nightmare. Sunday, May 29, 2011. Back to Backspace- Day One. About a year and a half ago I won a scholarship to the Backspace Conference. It was a phenomenal conference with lots of agent/writer interaction and personal attention. This year, my husband won the same scholarship. How cool is that? We got in very late Wednesday night. Thursday morning, bright and early, the conference began. (Why do they always have to start these things so early? And so ended day one.

Iriarte Files--Writer's Nightmare: April 2011
http://vickcorrenagencyfiles.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Iriarte Files- Writer's Nightmare. Tuesday, April 5, 2011. I love writing. I hate revising. Not to say I won't do it. I will. And I'll give it my best effort. I just don't enjoy it the way I enjoy creating new words. I think most writers feel the same way, although I have met a few who embrace and love revising. Must be something wrong with them. :-). Now let's hope the changes meet her expectations. Posted by Lisa Iriarte. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Links To Great Writerly Sites.

Iriarte Files--Writer's Nightmare: January 2012
http://vickcorrenagencyfiles.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Iriarte Files- Writer's Nightmare. Sunday, January 22, 2012. Sure Of course. But I'll be thrilled for him, too. And I'm certain he feels the same. It's not really jealousy of him so much as disappointment for me, I suspect. Because we aren't REALLY competing with each other. We're competing to see which of us can obtain our own new personal best faster. And each individual's personal best is different. We aren't competing AGAINST each other. Well, I have two views on this. Just don't get angry with other...

Iriarte Files- Writer's Nightmare. Friday, November 4, 2011. How to Deliver (and Receive) a Difficult Critique. So, by popular demand, I've decided to tackle this topic. Again, I'm not an expert by any means. And I'll admit, that while I try to present my critiques in a professional manner, I may slip up on my own rules from time to time. But here are some things I feel critters should and shouldn't do, especially when delivering or receiving a particularly harsh critique. First, the delivery. 4 Admit mi...

http://vickcorrenagencyfiles.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Iriarte Files- Writer's Nightmare. Tuesday, April 24, 2012. A Twitter pal of mine recently tagged me in a blog game called "The Lucky Seven Challenge." Normally I don't participate in these things, but since I haven't blogged in awhile, I decided this gave me a good excuse. So, here's how it works:. 1 Go to page 77 of your WIP or latest book. 2 Count down seven lines. 3 Copy the 7 sentences that follow and post them. 4 Tag 7 other authors. Could it all have been some sort of hallucination? Middle school ...

Iriarte Files--Writer's Nightmare: Fanfiction--A Good Jumping Off Point
http://vickcorrenagencyfiles.blogspot.com/2012/06/fanfiction-good-jumping-off-point.html
Iriarte Files- Writer's Nightmare. Monday, June 11, 2012. Fanfiction- A Good Jumping Off Point. One mistake I think a lot of new writers make is trying to take on too much too soon. They outline sweeping stories with multiple sub-plots, huge casts of characters, deep, meaningful themes. They choreograph complex fight scenes and build complicated worlds. And all these things are fabulous. If you're up to it. The fact of the matter is, most beginning writers aren't up to it. Writers can use this medium as ...

Iriarte Files--Writer's Nightmare: NEWSFLESH series by Mira Grant
http://vickcorrenagencyfiles.blogspot.com/2012/06/newsflesh-series-by-mira-grant.html
Iriarte Files- Writer's Nightmare. Saturday, June 2, 2012. NEWSFLESH series by Mira Grant. It's been awhile since I wrote a book review post. To be honest, I'd gotten tired of writing them. Though I only post my honest opinions, it felt like I was saying the same things over and over again. So it was going to take an extraordinary book (in this case, an extraordinary entire series) to get me to write another one. The NEWSFLESH series by Mira Grant accomplished all these things. Lastly, I'd like to compli...
