http://robinambrose.blogspot.com/2015/02/consequences-anyone-anyone-bueller.html
How NOT to Write a Query. Friday, February 27, 2015. My sons talked me into watching Expelled. This week. It's an hour and a half I'll never get back, so I figured I'd spend more time trying to save everyone else from it. What, exactly, does your character want in this scene?

How NOT to Write a Query. Tuesday, April 26, 2011. Entangled Plots (or why Im not a pantser, either). And I can't know why she'd choose him until I know what he says to her.

Robin Ambrose: June 2014
http://robinambrose.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
How NOT to Write a Query. Tuesday, June 24, 2014. What OW Can Teach Us About Building a Better Hero. There's been a lot- possibly too much- said about the Ordain Women "movement" (can we call it a movement when it's so tiny? These women were demonstrably strong and, just like that, they. weren't.

How NOT to Write a Query. Friday, April 10, 2015. No Award" and How to Parent Unruly Children. Old news in the 2015 Hugo Awards debacle is that those who hate the Sad Puppies - not the works on the slate, mind you, but the very idea of public slates, the proponents of the slate, those who agree with the proponents of the slate, and, by extension, every author named on the slate - are lobbying that everyone who hates what they hate should vote "No Award" in.
