Description

In this episode, Shameem shares how Leslie’s and Hananya’s suggestion for her to get started editing has paid off for her even though she broke all of her own rules. She also reveals her fear of beta readers.  


Hananya shares how using text to speech helps her to identify problems in her manuscript. She also shows us some of her organization techniques that keep her book on track. 


While Leslie talks about the pitfalls of getting lost in the timeline of her historical novel and how narrative continuity is an important element in storytelling.


We all talk about how our editing journeys are going so far, and how the puzzle pieces are fitting or not and the domino effect of making changes to our storylines.


Join us as we take another step toward our publishing dreams in this podcast about writing and friendship. We are the Three Writing Amigas!
