Wait, I just did. Annnnywho...<br /><br />Okay, I give. What's 'MG fantasy'? Google was of no use whatsoever.<br /><br />The very best of luck at the conference! I take it this weekend is the big date? I have every faith that you're the up-and-comer to look out for. And regarding 'breaking rules' in writing, you simply have to know WHEN to break them, and do it well! The reason they became rules was because the habits/techniques were done so poorly and so frequently; they became cheap crutches that didn't serve the story at all. That's my theory, anyway. If it's conspicous to the reader, you've effed it up.<br /><br />Okay, I'm blathering. Let me know how the conference goes! I might just ape you and start my own writing blog, to force myself to write.
