  • In this episode of The Writing Forge, hosts Bonnie and Miranda focus on the positive, celebrating elements in books that elevate their reading experience. Small physical touches can make a huge difference, like consistent heights that avoid the frustration of mismatched series and detailed maps in fantasy novels. Bonnie and Miranda also highlight the appeal of well-crafted chapter titles and engaging appendices, discussing how these extras enrich the storytelling experience. With a nod to nuanced character portrayals and clever trope subversions, Bonnie and Miranda share insights on what can make a book not just enjoyable but unforgettable—at least for these two opinionated readers!
