Unfortunately, there’s a lot of writing advice out there that doesn't help you write good. In fact, it helps you write pretty bad. And some of this advice is from professional, published writers. Here to join us once again for another episode about bad writing advice is Mattie Lewis. We talk about the virtues of head hopping, the problem with MICE, and why you shouldn't let a robot tell you whether or not your prose is vivid.
Note: The audio quality isn't quite as high as we like due to a technical error. We cleaned it up the best we could though.
