I really must thank you so much for what you are doing with these crash tests. I never really considered writing a novel with a first-person narrative, but this summer said to heck with it and am giving it a shot. The entire project is now very dear to me, and I've made it my goal to finish the first draft before my 20th birthday. These crash tests and your advice have been such an aid with that. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Keep on writing strong, and helping others to do the same :) Holly,

I have been having issues with the Fuzzy Thing for a while. Now that you've shown me ways to clear my habit I am overfilled with glee! I swear, if it wasn't for these crash tests, I'd still find myself complaining over stories I've written and I wouldn't be on the writing splurge I am on now. Thank you so much! :) I will try to enroll in your Think Sideways classes whenever I find a job. Holly, Holly, Holly. . .

I agree. I didn't even realize I was stepping into writing land mines until Holly came along with these great crash tests, I just knew things weren't quite working. How do I start to spot these on my own? Good question Joy. I agree.

I enjoy all the help I glean from you. I have a question when checking for these errors in my own work how is the best way to be sure I haven't overlooked something a potential agent or publisher will instantly notice. I'm referring to the whole problem of blindness, at least for me, you one pass revision works well for plot and substance but these sort of errors I think perhaps are easier to miss for a newbie such as myself. Your insight is, as always, greatly appreciated. Sincerely Yours, Joy Locke Dear Holly,

Thank you for sharing! I'm going to recommend them on my blog "Hypatia's Hoard of Reviews." (Yes, it's mostly book reviews, but I include some author and industry news, writing resources, etc.) These videos look like an excellent resource for writers. Thank you for sharing!
