Thanks, Greg!
I see some good ones today!
Alex–There was a good crop last week. :)
Elizabeth – Great links as always! Funny, the first one that caught my eye was the one about building an author platform and how exhausting it is. AMEN! Such a tough balance between that and writing. Now to go to the rest of my Writing 101 class with Professor Spann Craig . ;-)
Margot–It caught my eye quickly in my blog reader. :) Yes–totally exhausting! And that’s just the branding, not the writing!
Great list! Off to check out the one on making romance epic! :)
Hope you’ll find it helpful, Jemi! :)
Oooh, another great list. I’m going to check out the inspirational Pinteret boards for writers right now. Thanks, Elizabeth!
Julie–That was a popular post. Hope you get some good ideas!
