I love this post by Joe Cummings on 5 Writers 5 Novels 5 Months about creating obstacles for your characters.

 

Make them suffer.

 

And I can’t wait to read the next post by one of these writers. They get right to the point and they do it with clear, precise and humor-filled writing.

 

Thanks guys!
