The Maddening Middle (OnDemand webinar)
Many writers find it relatively easy to develop detailed beginnings for their story, and detailed endings—but they struggle with the middle portion of the novel. Beginnings are exciting because of the “blank page” effect—you have total freedom to invent characters and plot elements, build worlds, and imagine clever twists. Endings can be exciting because you get to write the big climactic encounters and pay off twists you set up in the beginning.  The middle, though, is often just a huge question mark. How do you get from the exciting setup to the exciting ending? We’ll discuss how to come up with B through Y when you have A and Z figured out. This is an OnDemand webinar. ($79.99 value)

Conquering the Muddle in the Middle (OnDemand Webinar)
If you've hit the dreaded middle of your novel, you're facing the writing abyss that separates your great beginning from your amazing ending. To battle the muddle in the middle, Raymond Chandler once said: "bring in a man with a gun." What did he mean by that? And how can it work for you? Don't fear your novel's central abyss—USA Today best-selling and award-winning thriller author Hank Phillippi Ryan can help you get across. The middle of your novel doesn't have to be a muddle.

What Agents and Editors are Looking for in First Pages (OnDemand Webinar)
Writing your query is the first step to grabbing the agents' attention, however, many writers are not aware that agents sometimes go directly to the first pages to even see if the writing is something to have a closer look at. Join agent Katie Shea Boutillier to discuss in detail what we are looking for when we approach your first pages.

Katie will go step-by-step to demonstrate the importance of strong first pages, focusing on voice, tone, mood, setting, urgency, pace, description, dialogue and your natural approach to your characters. Your ultimate goal is to make sure your reader (agent, editors, and beyond) are into your work immediately, and Katie will guide you with her knowledge and experience what makes impressive first pages to readers.

Dry mouth is miserable.
Size: 27 Count (Pack of 1)
The mouth lozenges for dry mouth were excellent at first, but I have dry mouth all day, and they started upsetting my stomach. I guess I was taking too many. Since I switched to the spry, I don't have a problem. I keep the a small bottle of the spray in my pocketbook, because I need it sporadically. It is probably different with each individual.

A Great Product!
These tablets are inspired! I use them every night with my cpap. The back of each tablet has a coating that, when moistened, is easily glued to a back tooth to slowly dissolve while sleeping. Works like a charm! These would be good to use when speaking publicly, too - no more performance dry mouth. You really can't tell it's there once it's glued in. The minty flavor is there, but not overwhelming. I am never without my Xylimelts!

Perfect for dry mouth!
I suffer from extreme dry mouth due to sleep apnea and side effects of medications. I used to gargle with mouthwash made for dry mouth before going to bed but it would wear-off by morning.. I’d awaken with severe cotton mouth! What’s worse is my mouth gets dry during the day when I’m out and can’t gargle. It’s so bad I can barely talk! Thank goodness for these melts!! They are GREAT! They stick easily to your gums or roof of your mouth and stay there! They slowly dissolve over night and I wake up without cotton mouth! I keep some in my purse for daytime. They’re better than lozenges or hard candy because they’re discrete. You don’t want to give a speech and be seen sucking on a candy! I use them so often that I was THRILLED to find them in the 100 quantity bottle at a lower price than I could find anywhere else! Protect your oral health and get these pleasant mint tasting melts for your dry mouth!

No more dry mouth at night!
These stick to your gums and keep your mouth moist all night. This makes it easier for me to sleep. I got them on the recommendation of my dental hygienist and have been getting better checkups since I started using them. It keeps your mouth moist which retards the growth of germs.
