Writing Tools & Applications

Not all of us are objective about our work. If you asked top authors if they are the best voice of reason over what works and doesn’t work in a given story, they’d probably say no. Why? We are too close to our writing to see the flaws. A your writing is a lot like a child–even if your kid is ugly in the eyes of other people, you see the beautiful creation of your genes. You don’t see missing plot lines, stilted dialogue, or flowering descriptions. You see art.
