I read this cool article last week — “30 Things To Stop Doing To Yourself” — and I thought, hey, heeeey, that’s interesting. Writers might could use their own version of that. So, I started to cobble one together. And, of course, as most of these writing-related posts become, it ended up that for the most part I’m sitting here in the blog yelling at myself first and foremost.
That is, then, how you should read this: me, yelling at me. If you take away something from it, though?
Then go forth and kick your writing year in the teeth.
Onto the list.

The Written Word and Then Some
There is very little in fiction that is better than a good curse. Here we have an excerpt from a novel we must all be on the watch for: Vanishing Act, by Emily Kiernan. In this excerpt, myth and manhood mix and the past is ever-present. Kiernan tells us a tale, one that rings true as it explores the nature of tale-telling. –Matt Salesses, Good Men Project Fiction Editor
