Many thanks for the advice Tom. I've only been with TNBW for a short while and this is the first time I've seriously looked at my first fiction I wrote four years ago, so everything is still new to me. Thanks again, Randy

Topic: Do I Need Chapter Titles in My Book? (5 replies, posted in Writing Tips & Site Help)
When I first started writing I numbered each new chapter and gave a location so I could keep track of the moving parts. I know the posting mechanism calls for chapter titles so I've put something in for each one but haven't put alot of thought into them. Most of the published authors I read don't have titled chapters, just numbered. Which is the best way to go? Looking for advice. Many thanks, Randy

Re: Prologue's (37 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
Interesting read through everyone's thoughts about the use of a prologue. I initially had one and if several people wouldn't have suggested dropping it and perhaps using some of the information throughout the book I would have come to the same conclusion after reading this. Glad to see so many people putting their views out there. Randy

Re: How much truth do you put into your writing? (12 replies, posted in Thriller/Mystery/Suspense)
I've tried to put as much truth into BEDLAM - THE BEGINNING, and I'm uncertain how much should be footnoted. Any recommendations? What I've footnoted thus far I want to stand as it is without any embellishment into the story. Thanks.
