Thank you! I’m certainly looking forward to getting back to a more regular posting schedule.

… a time to kick back, relax, and take some time away from a busy schedule for fun activities. Right?Well, that may be summer’s reputation, but when I’ve talked with friends and family it doesn’t seem that […]

Emily Sather wrote a new post, Spring Cleaning, on the site Emily Sather 1 year, 1 month ago
In my preferred version of spring cleaning, I’ve been going through some of my old links to resources lately, trying to decide if there’s a better way to organize them and keep track of things that I wanted to use […]

Emily Sather wrote a new post, Breaking Through the Barriers, on the site Emily Sather 1 year, 2 months ago
Ah, writer’s block. It seems to be a recurring problem for all writers, regardless of whether they’re professionals who make their living at the craft, hobbyists who dabble for their own enjoyment, or somewhere in […]

Emily Sather commented on the post, Human Error, or Disrespect?, on the site Emily Sather 1 year, 2 months ago
Thank you! I do think there’s a time and place for shooting off a quick email, not belaboring every note sent to friends and family. But being in the habit of giving things even a quick second read through can […]

Emily Sather wrote a new post, Exclamation Marks, on the site Emily Sather 1 year, 2 months ago
Since I’m currently making a push to (try to) finish up a couple of the books I’m writing, I thought that this week I’d put up a short section from one of them.
The book itself is geared mainly toward beginning […]

Emily Sather commented on the post, You keep using that word… I do not think it means what you think it means., on the site Emily Sather 1 year, 2 months ago
I think that can be a very helpful way of looking at it.
Honestly, I find that the thesaurus tends to be most helpful to me when I’m having one of those “tip of the tongue” moments – when I know what word I want […]

Oh, that is an interesting perspective on it. Now that you mention it, I do seem to remember having heard it in that context once or twice. I hadn’t received the impression from the ad as a whole that they were […]

Emily Sather commented on the post, Loving and Caring for Books, on the site Emily Sather 1 year, 2 months ago
The kindest way to treat a book is to read it.
- Mmm. I think that encapsulates the heart of it very well.
There is something about the specific books that you’ve read and re-read, that just can’t be replaced, […]

I mentioned the issue of declining vocabulary a couple of weeks ago. There’s another, related, problem that I’ve seen quite a lot: thesaurus abuse.It tends to be pretty obvious when you come across a writer […]

Emily Sather wrote a new post, Loving and Caring for Books, on the site Emily Sather 1 year, 2 months ago
It’s no secret that I love books. And although I happily take advantage of the convenience that e-books can lend, in my mind they’re still no substitute for a real, hard copy book.
Our house has plenty of walls […]

Emily Sather commented on the post, Grabbing Attention… the Right Way., on the site Emily Sather 1 year, 3 months ago
Exactly so. I’m really amazed at the number of people who don’t seem to think it’s necessary to give anything they write a second looking over. I think there’s a real sense that if you do things right the first […]

The other day, my father came across a news article that he just had to bring to my attention. Not because of the contents of the article itself… but because of the headline: -

I think recognition that that balance is necessary is really key. Being promotionally-minded is not a bad thing! At the heart of the issue, I think, is the consideration that your readers are giving you one of the […]

Emily Sather commented on the post, Vocabulary, on the site Emily Sather 1 year, 3 months ago
Very true. As I heard from several speakers at one of the more recent writing conferences I went to, these days writers aren’t really competing with other writers so much as with movies and television. The […]
