When the winner is announced, the audience is generally treated to a tearful acceptance speech. "I've worked so hard to get here. It's so nice to have that recognized.". Right And what about the other contestants? Did they not work hard, too? Could we not acknowledge that in some way? Writers are in constant competition. I...

Author Katharine Britton's Blog: Write-sized. Musings on writing, gardening, dogs, and life in Vermont. Tuesday, June 16, 2015. Creating Space in Your Garden/Life/Writing. I did a lot of gardening this weekend. Weeding, mostly, but also "editing.". I have long held the belief that it's sacrilegious to divide plants in June in Vermont. Our season is so short I felt it my duty to let each plant fully manifest its destiny until September. Besides, I wanted as much color as each plant could muster. So I star...

Author Katharine Britton's Blog: Write-sized. Musings on writing, gardening, dogs, and life in Vermont. Monday, May 11, 2015. Review of YA novel Seriously Wicked by Tina Connelly. Why aren’t Camellia’s real parents looking for her? Can be revealed in a flurry of expository dialogue. Great. But at this point readers might really just want to know if the town is going to blow up and whether Devon will be restored to his former “boy-band” self. Camellia insists that she is not a witch. And yet, in order...

Author Katharine Britton's Blog: Write-sized. Musings on writing, gardening, dogs, and life in Vermont. Monday, December 2, 2013. I was asked recently what books influenced me in writing Little Island. It was a tough question to answer, in that every book I’ve ever read, beginning with Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women. Has influenced me as a writer in some way. That said, my greatest influence for Little Island. Was not a book at all, but a weekend spent in Maine. One definite literary influence for the ...

Author Katharine Britton's Blog: Write-sized. Musings on writing, gardening, dogs, and life in Vermont. Wednesday, September 10, 2014. Review of Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel.

Mandel’s observations ...
