Episode 53: Writer Friends and Written Cliches

IN THIS EPISODE

Finding good writer friends can be hard. And once you throw your work into the mix, things can go bad. Fast. Abby and Mel talk about how they used a FB writers group (Writer Moms, Inc.) to find ladies who give them what they really need from writer friends— emotional support. (Hi there, Joy Rancatore and Mea Smith, we're looking at you!)

Also, Melanie finds herself trapped in an embarrassing situation. She finds herself describing one of her characters as if she were writing a a very cliched scene from a romance novel. We have a few good laughs reading it out loud (and thankfully Mel is a good sport about it). But Jennie walks her through what to do if you find yourself writing cliches with a simple fix to help you move on.
