End of January!

Everybody still writing?  I am, though it's not as much (school kicked in, first papers have come in).  I do have a story almost ready for the International Fanworks Day is anyone wants to beta.

I also - well, I can't say discovered, as it was recommended to me a while back, but over the past few days I've gotten around, finally, to walking again and to listening to podcasts, and I started in on a series called "Writing Excuses". It's a panel discussion with four pro sci-fi and fantasy writers, each ep about 15 minutes long, and some good stuff - some of it I know already, but some good ideas about writing in general (recognizing passive voice by adding 'by zombies' to the end: if the sentence makes sense, you have passive voice.)   Anybody got any other podcasts on writing that they like? 

How's everyone else doing? Still writing??

I like the tip about adding "by zombies" on the end to identify passive voice! Fun! Now I'm going to be mentally adding that to the end of all my sentences during edits, as a check. *g*

I know! I love that too - and 'by dragons' also works. As does 'be Ella Gaines' . . .
