Dawn Embers replied to Leah Miller's discussion Is there a YAWA?
"There is the SCBWI - Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators - and they include YA, or so the site says in the about section. Not sure if there is a YA only type of group…"

Dawn Embers commented on Georgia McBride's group 2011 Writing Resolutions and Goals
"My main writing goal for 2011 is to get a novel or two edited and out to beta readers. I've yet to get that far but really want to get closer to sending out to agents. Aside from that I'll probably start another first draft and finish…"

Dawn Embers replied to Nicōle Olea's discussion NaNoWriMo
"Wish I'd seen the threads on NaNo here earlier. That's what I get for not getting on the web site very often right now. This year I'm not writing YA, instead going for epic fantasy. After 13 days I have 50,055 words. I was trying to…"

Dawn Embers replied to Beth Fred's discussion Blog Traffic in the group Blogger Nation
"I would agree that taking part in different blogfests does help in followers and comments (on blogfest entries) but it doesn't always guarantee comments on other posts. And blogfests are a time commitment since you should try to read and…"

Dawn Embers replied to Gennifer Albin's discussion Writer's block
"Depends on the issue. Sometimes I'm overwhelmed and need a mini break, so I'll take one. Sometimes, I'm working on the wrong story so I'll switch my focus. Or I will listen to the podcast, I Should Be Writing, for a few episodes,…"

Dawn Embers replied to Nikki Katz's discussion Pitch Lines in the group Craft Masters
"Thanks for the comment. I haven't been checking here much but I have tweaked the pitch a bit for my first query attempt. Your pitch does have some interest, though I am not fond of the "you". Second person just bugs me, since it is…"

Dawn Embers replied to Georgia McBride's discussion Why are you telling your story? Do you even know?
"That is a good question. A basic answer for me is simply, because I want to. I could do the whole "the characters speak to me and insist I tell their story" but eh, I will just admit it. I am writing the novels because they are the ones I…"

Dawn Embers replied to Beth Fred's discussion Non-linear Writing in the group Craft Masters
"I do this on occasion. While most of the novel will be written from start to finish, a few random sections will be done out of order. The novel I wrote most of in March and finished in April is a good example because I did a few thousand words of a…"

Dawn Embers replied to Shreyonti Chakraborty's discussion Horror and YA
"I think like most it depends on the reader. My best friend in high school was a girl who was part blind, she had to listen to books on tape or find them in brail. She used to listen to Stephen King books all the time. She loved the horror ones. I…"

Dawn Embers replied to Nikki Katz's discussion Pitch Lines in the group Craft Masters
"I have a pitch line now, thanks to a logline/hook blogfest that I took part in. I'll only post the YA one since most the others are for adult books. This one is for the book I'm currently rewriting called Tattle Tell. Ephram has been a…"

Dawn Embers replied to Nikki Katz's discussion Pitch Lines in the group Craft Masters
"This is a great idea! I don't have any lines to pitch yet because I have nothing close to being pitch ready but I might try and write some soon. Your line is great, the very first one in the post introduction. Definitely shows the tension and…"
