Twitterific Writing Links by @elizabethscraig Elizabeth Spann Craig

by Elizabeth S. Craig, @elizabethscraig

A weekly roundup of the best writing links from around the web.

Twitterific writing links are fed into the Writer’s Knowledge Base search engine (developed by writer and software engineer Mike Fleming) which has over 30,000 free articles on writing related topics. It’s the search engine for writers.

It’s good to be back!  Hope everyone had a good couple of weeks.  Here’s an extended Twitterific.  :)

The top writing links of last week are on Twitterific: Share on X
  1. So glad to have you back, Elizabeth! And thanks, as ever, for these fabulous links. I’m looking forward to returning to my ‘Writing 101’ Sunday class :-)

  2. That’s the longest list yet.

    Welcome home. I hope your family didn’t hit the NC beaches this past week. Wow, was it busy and hot. (I had a signing at Topsail Island on Friday and it was almost 100 degrees.)

    1. Diane–Thanks! No, no beaches this year yet. The kids have had kind of a complicated summer schedule for us to get away. No breeze on Topsail? The beach is so, so humid in July with no breeze! Bet you spent lots of time in the ocean. :)

  3. Welcome back, Elizabeth. I hope you had a fantastic break. Thanks for the inclusion of a Now Novel post. It’s going to take me some time to read through all of these!
    B

  4. Elizabeth, thanks for including my post! I feel so honored!

    I think I should check all links from this list :)
