With just a slight nip in the air it is the perfect time to cozy up to a crackling fire and pry open a good book... or write the next chapter on your WIP. And hopefully this week on the Alley there will be some great advice (or what we think to be great advice) to help propel your story forward.
So grab a cup of coffee or hot chocolate and settle in for lessons on the craft of writing.
Monday: Hooks in the beginning, hooks in the middle, hooks in the end... Oh sorry wrong thought there. But Pepper will be talking hooks, how to keep that reader turning from chapter to chapter. Don't miss it!
Tuesday: What to write when there isn't anything to write? Sherrinda is your hostess today, don't miss out on the sunshine she brings to the Alley. ;-)
Wednesday: Part two of Mary's parable and allegory series, how it enriches our writing, to be used even in everyday fiction!
Thursday: Myth Buster #2 Show Don't Tell. What secrets will Casey unearth and explode in the face of one of today's popular "myths"? Only time will tell, so check back in.
Friday: The Grand Canyon. A spectacular view and a breathtaking glimpse of God's creation. Mary takes us there on the next installment of Vacation Fridays.
Saturday: Plotting your novel? Want some great advice? Stop by to visit with author Cara Putman as she talks about how she plotted her latest novel, Stars in the Night.

GREAT weekend edition, Case. Thanks SOOOO much :-)
Oh what fun - fall and spring are my favorite times of year. Particularly fall in these Blue Ridge Mountains. God's fingerpaint is all over the place :-)
Ohh, I can just imagine how beautiful that is. I have always wanted to go to Virginia in the Fall and Washington State in the Spring. So beautiful!
What do you say that I take some pics for one of our Fall weekend posts? Sound good. The BEST time would be the second or third week of October
That would be wonderful!! Almost as good as seeing it in person. Ohh, I can't wait!!
