A = Anthology. Look out for reputable ones especially those produced by the independent press and try to get your stories included in these. Great way to build up your writing CV.
B = Book. The book is what matters, not its format so get your work out there in paperback, for the Kindle and so on.
C = Characters. Without strong characters there are no stories. The tales we remember best all have the strongest characters in them. Are your characters strong enough to be remembered years later? (This is a challenge for us all!).
D = Denouement. Every story has to have a satisfying ending, one that is appropriate. It doesn't have to be happy but the denouement must seem to be the natural conclusion.
E = Editing. The writer's friend! Nobody writes a perfect script or story immediately. So write on, edit later.
And more tomorrow, hopfyully.
