Common Problems in Your Short Stories, and How to Fix ThemOne of the most common problems I see in new writers and short fiction is when something essential is missing. Basing my teachings over the past 10 years on Freytag's Pyramid, if your story isn't working, it's usually one of a few key elements: narrative hooks, inciting incidents, conflicts, and resolutions (with denouements). We'll discuss the mechanics, and diagnosis, with some suggestions on how to fix those key areas. Instructor: Richard Thomas is

One of the most common problems I see in new writers and short fiction is when something essential is missing. Basing my teachings over the past 10 years on Freytag's Pyramid, if your story isn't working, it's usually one of a few key elements: narrative hooks, inciting incidents, conflicts, and resolutions (with denouements). We'll discuss the mechanics, and diagnosis, with some suggestions on how to fix those key areas.

His over 175 stories in print include The Best Horror of the Year (Volume Eleven), Cemetery Dance (twice), Behold!: Oddities, Curiosities and Undefinable Wonders (Bram Stoker Award winner), The Hideous Book of Hidden Horrors (Shirley Jackson Award winner), Lightspeed, PANK, storySouth, Gargoyle, Weird Fiction Review, Midwestern Gothic, Shallow Creek, The Seven Deadliest, Gutted: Beautiful Horror Stories, Qualia Nous (#1&2), Chiral Mad (#2-4), PRISMS, Pantheon, and Shivers VI.

The application for the soap bag
I like it because it will work best in an outdoor setting like camping, hiking and trail biking. Just put your preferred soap in it and go. Clean up and personal hygiene will be easy to do. When you are done just hang in out to dry. It stores easy with other grooming items.

Rapid mold growth
The parts where soap wasn’t touching 24/7 mildewed very quickly. and this doesn’t sit in water, it hangs on a hook beyond where the shower stream reaches. I didn’t even get halfway through a bar of soap before I realized it wasn’t that my soap turned the bag white, it was that the top half turned green with mold. The smell test was brutal.

Multi Purpose/Good Lather
Rich Lather. Durable. I also use and compared this to Dr. Sqauch's travel bags to keep your soap from getting destroyed. it does the same thing for 1/4 of the price. I would buy again when the time comes if the price is roughly the same.

Saves a Ton of Soap
Really great product if you wanna save soap bars and not have to buy new ones every couple of weeks. Not as scratchy as I thought it would be and it can be a bit awkward to use. Still a good product though.
