#235 – Free-Writing Session (the editing process, Prologues vs. Flashbacks, The Creative Act and more!)

Spun Today with Tony Ortiz

In this episode I share my Writing stats for March, April & May 2023! I give you an update on my upcoming short story anthology and how it continues to go with working with my editor. I share a writing tip that I picked up along the way and I tell you about what I’ve been reading. Lastly, I read and reflect on a free-writing piece, that can be found at: spuntoday.com/freewriting.

The Spun Today Podcast is a Podcast that is anchored in Writing, but unlimited in scope. Give it a whirl.
