7 Simple (and kinda weird) Writing Tips from Latin America
Bookfox
@bookfoxAbout
I'm John Matthew Fox of Bookfox and I help authors write better fiction. Authors who worked with me have been published by Random House, sold more than 100,000 copies, and received Kirkus Starred Reviews. I've also taught writing at Chapman University and the University of Southern California (USC). I'm the author of two books, "I Will Shout Your Name" (Press 53) and my nonfiction book for writers: "The Linchpin Writer: Crafting Your Novel's Key Moments" You can take 10 writing courses from me with Bookfox Academy (link below). You can also join my coaching program, Bookfox Lab, which offers weekly feedback on your writing, provides one-on-one mentorship, and guides you through the process of writing your book. (link below)
