@AuthorGoodwin Although maybe horses aren’t so expensive after all? 😂

[Diane E. Samson @diane_samson]

@AuthorGoodwin As a former hunter/jumper rider and fellow author, this is such a great take! Thank you for being so genuine!

@HerringAli This is oddly comforting to me! I get a little worried about AI checkers being wrong and all that…I was writing way before AI!

@BrandyVallance Thanks for a great meeting and wonderful, informative workshop!

@mjvalentour @heatherdgilbert I was just thinking about this today! I care more about a character if I’ve seen the pre-inciting incident life. But also considered cutting the first three chapters of my novel today. 🤷‍♀️

@RickyDoggin Why do they abandon them? Don’t they need dogs for the next year?

[Diane E. Samson @diane_samson]

@LeannaRapier @Strangeland_Elf Right. There are some things I’m changing like hand soaps, laundry detergents and not microwaving plastic, but I’m still microwaving in glass. And I try to use avocado and olive oil but I’m not freaking out about canola. All we can do is the best we can do!

[Diane E. Samson @diane_samson]

@PJSkinnerAuthor Wow. So terrible that was said but you are beautiful, smart and accomplished!

[Diane E. Samson @diane_samson]

@Matt_Pinner Francis and Dolores

@HeatherCashman Wonderful episode! I tend to use a lot of eye descriptors in my early drafts. This had some great suggestions on how to replace with setting or inner dialogue, etc to cut some of it out of dialogue.
