Hi. I'm Jack London. MWSA asked me to contribute a weekly note about writing, a column I call A Novel Approach.
It isn't just for novelists. A Novel Approach is for all writers and is designed to help us jump start or get past some of the nagging problems that cause us to put elbows on table, chin in hands, and gaze out the window. We cover such things as writing in the active voice, analyzing sentence and paragraph structure, story arc, and the like.
