Weekly Round-Up

Yee-haw! Welcome to the Weekly Round-up, where I lasso up the week’s latest news and rootin’-tootin’ literary articles on the Net!

This week, FutureBook asks 3 important questions about digital that nobody is asking. Also on FutureBook, the Digital Rights Management (DRM) debate continues.

For writers: K.M. Weiland @ Wordplay has a post with useful advice on writing multiple-character scenes.

On GalleyCat: after January 30th, Goodreads will stop using book identification information from Amazon. While this may not affect any of the books on your bookshelf, here’s how to rescue your books should they be in danger of going into Goodreads limbo. (via GalleyCat)

And finally, this may not be a new article, but for crime fiction buffs, here are some ways to separate your sociopath from your psychopath. I have a clear idea which one my antagonist in Oracle is. ;)

    I saved the multiple characters link since I will have two chapters each with six people I think :D

    Good to see that some people are finding these links useful. I’m aware it’s not a super-long round-up this week. Been busy. More links next week!
