#ProTip: When writing dialogue, your tag should be a synonym of "said". Smiled, shrugged, gasped—these are not verbs that can produce words.

Also, I kinda want Kindle & Kobo to be a new Miami Vice-like cop show: "Kobo, taste this--that's pure formatting." "Book 'em." #Diviners
ProTip: When writing dialogue, only use verbs that are descriptive synonyms of “said.” “Smiled” is not one of these. #amediting
ProTip: Use/overuse of the word “atop” can make your writing seem old fashioned. Remember your context. #amediting
ProTip: “Awhile” is an adverb. If you can’t replace it with “quietly,” for instance, you’re using it incorrectly. #amediting
ProTip: When writing sci fi or fantasy, you don’t need to capitalize every invented word. #amediting
