The Top Writing Links From Last Week Are On Twitterific: Share on X
Thanks, as ever, Elizabeth, for the great links. Very helpful! And it’s interesting that there’s one about choosing the right host for one’s website. I think authors do need an online ‘landing site,’ like a website/blog, and it’s helpful to work with professionals who can help set that up the right way.
Most of us don’t have the time to figure out how to do it ourselves. Good to have pros we can hire!
What authors need to know about being arrested – my brain missed the part about crime writing and I wondered what we’d be arrested for.
Ha! I think I read it that way first, myself. :) Maybe that’s a post someone needs to write, lol.
