Need help developing your skills, or just need to brush up on some tips when you are having writers' block?  I use these techniques everyday when I write, right from my own store of private writer's cheat sheets.

Also included are posts on creating query letters, synopses, pitches, and more.  These posts will help you to focus your writing.  That means you will be able to impress agents and publishers, or if you prefer the Indie route, improve your ability to attract and capture your audience as early as the book jacket blurb.
