Description
Marissa chats with Rebecca Barrow about her YA murder mystery - BAD THINGS HAPPEN HERE - as well as looking at the types of books you like to read to help you decide what you should be writing; the huge role that voice can play in achieving a stark, chilling vibe for your mystery or thriller; how to develop both settings and characters that have layers, depth, and secrets; using your protagonist's unique perspective to highlight those elements of your story world that you most want readers to pick up on; deepening your characters by taking a closer look at the choices they are making, and what is motivating those decisions; and some things to consider when determining whether to tie up all those loose ends, or to leave some subplots unresolved.Books discussed in this episode can be purchased from your local independent bookstore or buy them online from the Happy Writer bookshop.org store (that benefits indie bookstores) at https://bookshop.org/shop/marissameyerBooks discussed in this episode can be purchased from your local independent bookstore or buy them online from the Happy Writer bookshop.org store (that benefits indie bookstores) at https://bookshop.org/shop/marissameyer Find out more and follow The Happy Writer on social media: https://www.marissameyer.com/podcast/
