#WritersCoffeeClub day 5: How can the physical form of the writing become part of the storytelling?
One of my favorite books as a child was _The Monster at the End of This Book_, in which Grover, the blue muppet from _Sesame Street_, does everything he can to keep the reader from turning each page and eventually finishing the book. It was delightfully meta, and completely based on the physical form of a bound book.

#WritersCoffeeClub day 6: Do the plots or characters in your work converge towards a single point? No, they pretty much all start in the same place and thread, and stay there. I do love plots that converge (season 1 of _The Expanse_, one of my favorite shows, is a great example of this — even more so than _Leviathan Wakes_, the book it's based on, because the show has 3 main threads compared to the book's 2). But the plot in my WIP isn't like that.
