Referencing the Pandemic in Your WIP

In today's episode, Bianca, Carly, and CeCe kick it back old school using the old classic 'Books with Hooks' format during which they discuss leaning into specificity in query letters; stating where you live when writing a query; needing a major dramatic question in a memoir; the importance of protagonist observations in a relationship-driven story; the need for a meaty hook in a memoir written by a non-famous person; and why you have to have curiosity seeds.After which, CeCe interviews NYT bestselling author, Andrea Bartz, author of The Spare Room, about her latest novel; writing about the pandemic; using a psychology background to develop characters; and the how the intentionality of verbs and language choices can elevate your work.Find us on our socials:Twitter: @TSNOTYAW @BiancaM_author @carlywatters @ceciliaclyraInstagram: @biancamarais_author @carlywatters @cece_lyra_agent @ the_shit_about_writingFacebook: @tsnotyawWebsites: www.theshitaboutwriting.com, www.biancamarais.com, www.carlywatters.com and www.cecilialyra.comMore information about Andrea can be found at www.andreabartz.com.
