@LisaMBenfield Thank you. Starting to come together now.😊

[Emily Owen @TheEmilyOwen]

Completed the read-through of my second draft. Shaved off 1,000 words and zapped a fair few typos.
Amazing how many errors and plot holes leap out at you when you don't look at your manuscript for ages!

Recently rediscovered the joy of writing and reading #shortstories - a great way for an emerging or established writer to hone their craft.📖

What short stories do you enjoy reading? 'The Necklace' by Guy de Maupassant is a favourite classic of mine.📿

Hesitant to 'murder your darlings' when editing your manuscript? Create a fresh version of the MS and preserve those prized sentences in an older version. The chances are you'll never look at them again, or even realise they're gone from your manuscript.

Since it's spooky season, think it's time to finally brave it and dive into Lovecraft...🪦💀🐙

Anyone else buy a bookmark whenever they go on holiday somewhere to add to their collection?🔖

Managed to find two Italian leather bookmarks in Pisa that complement my book covers beautifully (and smell wonderful too).
