Word of the week: Anathema
This week the hosts of The Scripturient Society writers group and podcast discuss "plot conveniences", including their personal favorite/least favorite conveniences, as well as how and when to use them. Not sure what the hosts are referring to as a "plot convenience"? If you have seen a character develop a sudden infinity for the exact super power they need to move the plot along, or a character finds just enough of a letter to send them in the right direction, you know what we're talking about.
Join Ash and Karissa as they discuss plot conveniences!
