Blog postBy Ward Larsen
Researching a novel can be a daunting proposition. Any author with a few books under their belt will have stories about reviewers who bring up inaccuracies.

Blog postThe Thrill of the Pace: Creating a book that readers can’t put down by Boyd Morrison
Readers today have a finite amount of time and an explosion of different entertainment options. As a thriller author, my competition for readers’ attention isn’t just other books. With a smart phone in every person’s pocket, my real competition is Netflix, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Tik Tok, Xbox, Candy Crush, and Fortnite. If my reader’s mind wanders because they’re bored with the story, it’s easy -
Blog postHow to Beat Writer’s Block – 7 Tips from the Trenches by Brian Andrews
Whether you’re writing your first novel or your twenty-fifth, at some point during your writer’s life you will find yourself staring at a blinking cursor on your computer screen and wondering why the words have stopped flowing. It might happen gradually, like a car coasting to a stop after running out of gas, or it might be abrupt, like slamming into an invisible brick wall. Either way, when it happens, you’ll kno -

Blog postProtagonist Plug & Play — A Simple Approach to Character Crafting By Brian Andrews

But for all their uniqueness and diversity, they have much more in commo -

Blog postThe Mantle of Character By Brian Andrews
When I served as a US Naval Officer, my professional competence, my capabilities, and most importantly my integrity was on display twenty-four hours a day, three hundred and sixty-five days a year. Every decision I made, every order I gave, and every interaction with a superior or subordinate was observed by my fellow crewmembers up and down the chain of command. To wear the uniform meant, at a minimum, I was obligated to strive to embody the -
