										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey, big huge congrats to the winners of the Presents Writing Competion! To get so far out of so many entries is a huge acheivement. Chocolate martinis and champagne cocktails all round.<br />Especially to fellow aspirant MH author and MH winner, Gill (AKA Jilly). I&#8217;ve only just met you but your talent is truly inspiring.  Can&#8217;t wait to read the book!</p>
<p>In other positive news, I have heard back from the ed. She wants me to send her detailed character back-stories for Cat and Sean <span>before </span>a partial and a synopsis. So I&#8217;m still in the game here! Now this is something I should have done way back when and just didn&#8217;t because I&#8217;m so damn impatient to get to writing the story. No longer! </p>
<p>So this weekend is my time to sort out just who my characters are. I&#8217;m going to write detailed backstories for them, why they are the people they are when the story opens. Very excited as this feels like I&#8217;m finally getting to the root of my problems with conflict&#8230;</p>
<p>More next week!</p>The post <a href="https://www.jackieashenden.com/presents-competition-congrats/">Presents Competition – Congrats!</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.jackieashenden.com">Jackie Ashenden - Romance Author</a>.]]></content:encoded>
