I have another fantastic tip from Ryann Kerekes today. I posted one from her a couple weeks ago (Tip #116) and she also sent in Tip #101. Ryann blogs at Novel Addiction where she last posted on what makes a writer succeed. While poking around her blog, I also noticed she's now represented. Congrats, Ryann!! After you read her tip below, hop over and check out her latest posts.
How to Plot - free writing course!
Can't afford to attend a conference? Check out the free video tutorial series, How to Plot a Novel, Screenplay or Memoir by the Plot Whisperer, Martha Alderson.
I watched all 27 videos (they’re short, around 6-8 minutes each) and highly recommend them.
A few things I'm working on this week:
- Defining my characters and their short term and long term goals.
- Giving my character a flaw that’s going to work against them achieving their goals.

This video series is very helpful. I watched all of them (and took notes.)
Congrats Ryann on having an agent. And thanks for the tip. I'll have to watch them. Thannks.
Thanks for sharing such a great resource!
I haven't heard of these videos - thanks for sharing!
I haven't heard about these either. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing
I haven't heard about these either. It looks like she's going to receive a lot of new traffic today. LOL Thank you for sharing!
Thank you. I will definitely check them out:)
Wonderful suggestion. Plus, free is a nice cost:-)
Yesss the plot whisperer--awesome!
Great tip. I'm going to check it out.
Thank you for this. I'll take time tomorrow to watch. Congrats on snatching an agent!
I agree, those are excellent videos! I went on a self styled retreat with a friend and used the plot whisper vids. Love them! Her book is great too.
Congrats on the representation and thanks for sharing your tip, Ryan.
I discovered Alderson's tutorials last summer when I was recuperating from foot surgery. They are fantastic. Meanwhile, I bought the book, too. Equally fantastic.
That's one heckuva tip! Thanks. I'll check out the videos. :-)
I just order her book. Hmmm. Hope it isn't the same stuff as in the free videos. At least now I don't have to take notes, which I really suck at.
Yay! So happy to share this tip. The videos are great. (I took notes too). And thanks for the congrats on my new agent, too! I'm thrilled!!
I checked Ryann out. Thanks for the tip!
Hey, cool! I hadn't heard of this series. Congrats to Ryann!
Congratulations to Ryann on her new agent! This is a great tip, and I could use some of the same assistance.
