I have just completed my first novel draft, and I can tell you, my brain is fired! Although I use Scrivener and don’t know how I’d write without it, I like to verify formatting against the industry standards.

Lara Willard had provides an excellent three-part series on novel manuscript formatting.  I’ve provided links to all parts, including her free download. Thanks to Lara for a great resource. I hope you enjoy her articles as much as I did. These are keepers.

 

Part 1: via Formatting your Novel Manuscript

Part 2: Hard-Core Manuscript Formatting

Part 3: Download a copy of her free MS FORMAT TEMPLATE.

A Podcast on Submissions Worth Hearing

/ Sheila McIntrye Good, Author / 3 Comments

I don’t know about you, but I love podcasts. Below is one of my favorites. First, available from Brevity, this podcast features submissions –  what makes, and an editor reject or accept a submission; when to submit, themes, and common mistakes.

So, grab a glass of wine, notepad, and enjoy this podcast on submissions. You can download it on Soundcloud, iTunes, or Stitcher.
