The top writing links of last week are on Twitterific: Share on X
Great links! Many musicians could be novelists and write amazing lyrics. Concept albums aren’t as easy as they seem.
Alex–I wonder how many of them have ever thought about doing longform work? I’d be very interested in the results!
Really interesting links as ever, Elizabeth, for which thanks. Interesting that there are a few on writing in genres I’ve not experimented with yet. Maybe it’s a Sign ;-)
Margot–I’d love to see something different from you! Or maybe you could experiment with other mystery subgenres?
