Welcome! Update from me: my audiobook arrived last week and I've been madly proofing the files. My narrator has done a fabulous job. I'm 47/57 chapters down and hoping to finish off the proof this week. Meanwhile, I've added about 3.4k to book 3.

Laugh at yourself, but don't ever aim your doubt at yourself. Be bold. When you embark for strange places, don't leave any of yourself safely on shore. Have the nerve to go into unexplored territory. Alan Alda

We're our own worst enemy. You doubt yourself more than anybody else ever will. If you can get past that, you can be successful. Michael Strahan

Wow. Thanks. I've never REALLY won anything in my entire life (except a dish rag once).

Despite my initial difficulty with the photograph, I loved all the entries! Eerie, romantic, tragic, funny, I loved them all. Here are the winners: First Place: He had waited a thousand years to be set free from this tree-tomb with a kiss from...

I seem to enjoy finding a writing challenge in either structure or convention or roaming POV’s or something… and now as I’m thinking about my next novel, I’m playing around with this O-pov in my head. Good grief!! Look what you’ve done Rachel! Haha!

And Pulp Fiction is one of my all time favourites! I can see the omniscient in it now you say it.

It makes a lot of sense to give that a name. And it's helpful too. It's pretty cool to have such clarity around it. Jeez, I think that would be really hard to write. Hard but fun maybe?? I was wondering what screenplays might be omniscient, as...

Do you think it's a real thing? Like a known industry thing? I'd never heard of it either, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything. haha!

I just heard her explain it on another video. It's like how GRR Martin goes every chapter to a new protag and just keeps rotating through them. Didn't know that had a name!

George Eliot was very good at omniscient. She would use it as a tool for political or social comparisons. But she wrote way back when women had to use male pseudonyms to publish anything.

It'd be difficult. The start of The Book Thief is a classic example where you really feel the narrator that AM mentions. The narrator is Death. I'd never heard of rotating third until this and I've done a deep dive for a few years of omniscient.

I suspect both??
