- Don’t know what to write? Just cut and paste from your favorite book.
- Bored with your main character? Change his name half-way through the book.
- Hate your bad guy’s guts? Kill him off in the second scene.
- Word count too short? Add random scenes to flesh it out.
- Word count too long? No one cares how the book ends. Cut it out.
- Don’t feel like meeting that deadline? Then don’t write!
- Not enough sizzle in a genre romance? Make it a harem.
- Too little suspense in that thriller? Give the detective a Tahiti vacation.
- Bored with fantasy worlds? Make it an all-human cast with identical sociopolitical values and views.
- Need more back story? Just do an “As you know, Bob…” info dump.
