Magnolias and Men M/M Romance With a Southern Accent: What's in a Word - It's in His Kiss
http://www.edenwinters.com/2014/09/whats-in-word-its-in-his-kiss.html
Eden Winters' random thoughts. Sunday, September 28, 2014. What's in a Word - It's in His Kiss. It's been a while since my last "What's in a Word" post, where I examine single words that I feel are lazy and should learn to work harder. Today's word: kiss. What's wrong with kiss? Like "walk" and "look", it's a perfectly acceptable word.that conveys minimal information. Let's use Henri and Seb from my latest release "A Matter of When" to make a point, shall we? Okay Yeah. They kissed. So what? See, very di...

Magnolias and Men M/M Romance With a Southern Accent: What's in a Word--Hey, Good "Looking"
http://www.edenwinters.com/2012/10/whats-in-word-hey-good-looking.html
Eden Winters' random thoughts. Thursday, October 4, 2012. What's in a Word- Hey, Good "Looking". After two solid weeks of ranting, I've finally moved on from my bias against the word "walked." Now I'm moving on to "looked.". To me, "looked" is another lazy word that doesn't do much for a story. I'm leaving Lucky alone this time to use Seth and Dustin from my upcoming novel "Naked Tails" for examples. Could this be an amorous moment between our two heroes? Most word processing programs that I've used have...

Magnolias and Men M/M Romance With a Southern Accent: What's in a Word? -- All the Right Moves
http://www.edenwinters.com/2012/10/whats-in-word-all-right-moves.html
Eden Winters' random thoughts. Friday, October 12, 2012. What's in a Word? All the Right Moves. If you use the word 'move' one more time, it'd better involve a van and a new apartment." T. Hose words of wisdom. That threat came from a dear, sweat beta, who I trust with my life and my literary children. And you know what? She was absolutely right, though it took me far too long to get the message. And that message involves the dreaded words no author wants to hear: "You're telling, not showing.". This lea...

Magnolias and Men M/M Romance With a Southern Accent: Ode to a Stranger
http://www.edenwinters.com/2015/07/ode-to-stranger.html
Eden Winters' random thoughts. Tuesday, July 14, 2015. Ode to a Stranger. The year was 1979, I was far from home, didn't fit in, was homesick and ill. My refuge was a local park not far from where I was staying. My favorite picnic table shielded me from the world I'd grown tired of dealing with at the ripe old age of seventeen, behind a cluster of bushes and trees. I'd lie on my table, dreaming of better times, as much of the future as I could imagine- miss my home. That's when I met. him. You never know...

Magnolias and Men M/M Romance With a Southern Accent: What's in a Word? -- Reminders
http://www.edenwinters.com/2012/09/whats-in-word-reminders.html
Eden Winters' random thoughts. Friday, September 28, 2012. What's in a Word? Explained my dislike of the word "walk" to describe a character's mobility. Today I'm still singling out that word, but taking things a step further, using synonyms for not only adding description and ambiance to a scene, but also to allow readers to remember a critical piece of the story they may have forgotten. Once more I'm picking on Lucky from Diversion. And the upcoming Collusion. He's fun to pick on. Suffered an old injur...

Magnolias and Men M/M Romance With a Southern Accent: What's in a Word?
http://www.edenwinters.com/2012/09/whats-in-word-writing-lesson.html
Eden Winters' random thoughts. Thursday, September 20, 2012. What's in a Word? Today's word is "walked", or how a character gets from point A to point B. I'm going to pick on Lucky from Diversion. For an example of why this word annoys me. Number one: it tells me next to nothing. " Lucky walked across the floor.". All I leaned from this sentence is that the character moved from where he was. Nothing wrong with that, right? And yet: " Lucky crept across the floor". Tells me more. Ah! After all that walkin...

Eden Winters' random thoughts. Tuesday, July 21, 2015. Today Malcolm and Aillil of Duet. Speak Italian, courtesy of Dreamspinner Press's awesome translating department. Eppure, il tutore che suo padre ha assunto per i suoi fratelli può avere qualcosa da insegnare anche all’erede dei Callaghan. Il padre di Aillil minaccia il loro amore, ma un pericolo più grande li divide. I due svaniscono nella leggenda. Il Laird perduto, però, sa cosa gli appartiene. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
