Savy Joe asked April Henry:

I was wondering if you have any tips for aspiring authors of mystery books? I feel like once I get a basis of a plot down it’s hard to turn it into my own style and set my book apart from every other mystery book out there.

April Henry This question tells me that if you keep writing and keep working on getting better, you will eventually be published. You are thinking like a writer.

I have been trying to figure out an easy answer for you, but I think this mostly just happens from writing more.

The book that has helped me write out of the box the most is Holly Lisle's Create A Plot Clinic.
