in the Storm often has thorough articles about the craft, and this is no
exception. Piper Bayard tackles the bugaboo of many writers: backstory. She has
a unique method for eliminating it.
2. Zoe
M. McCarthy gives One Important Reason to Limit Cliches in Your Stories. My
critique partner always said that I loved cliches. It's taken quite a while to
break that habit, and a few still appear in my first drafts. This is an
excellent article for every writer: newbies to advanced. A refresher never hurt
anyone.

Leon talks about how God used her puppy to teach her an important lesson.
5. Susan, at Writing
Straight From The Heart, shared her cranberry glass collection with

beat. I thought you might enjoy this post.

Susan: I found the article on the court case interesting. It seems people believe that our freedoms mean anything goes. But these people forget that all actions, including our speech, have consequences. This goes back to the permissiveness under which some children were raised in the 1960s and 1970. (In my opinion.)
Hi Susan, I looked up Bonnie's blog, such a delightful story about her puppy and the lessons God teaches us through ordinary life. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the links, Susan. Hope you have a great week along with Sweetie Mom.
