If you like writing, humor, liquor and trucker-like cussing (or, really, any one of those), go check out Check Wendig’s site, TERRIBLEMINDS.
Not only does he offer sound writing advice, but he does so in a way that’s bound to make you snort your bourbon out your nostrils.
He’s an entertaining, whiskey-soaked cheerleader who manages to convey the tedious, difficult like of a freelance writer in a way that makes you actually want to sit down at the computer and type like mad. He exhorts his readers to try their hands at various genres and modes of writing, and he, most importantly, tells it like it is: crazy, fun, exhausting, difficult, wonderful.
With weekly flash fiction challenges, interviews with interesting authors and great giveaways, he hooks his readers and brings them back again and again.
He offers several e-books at a great price, but honestly? Even though I’ve bought them (gotta support our writers!), I haven’t actually read them (yet; I'm still figuring out the whole e-book thing). I’m more interested in what he brings to my desktop on a day-to-day basis. What new, mad insight will I be privy to today?
