Thanks for including my post on handling bad book reviews! I had fun putting it together.
It was a great post, Alex! Hope you have a good week. :)
Thanks as ever for the links, Elizabeth. What a lot of good writing advice in your ‘Writing Life’ collection. This is one reason to remember that we’re not doing this alone. Lots of others face the same challenges, and have some good ideas and resources for facing them.
It helps to know there are other writers in the same boat!
Thanks so much for including my article on challenging yourself. Great list!
Thanks for being a great resource for writers, Debra!
Thanks for including my article about nonfiction writing approaches. When I describe this concept to clients and other writers, there is often such a sense of relief (“Oh, I’m NOT doing it wrong!”). :-)
It’s always good to know we’re on the right track! Thanks for coming by. :)
Many thanks, Elizabeth, for compiling this amazing pool of writing resources. I was not aware of this search engine.
I am thrilled that the link to my article for Women Writers, Why We Need Contemporary War Fiction Written by Women, made it!
Supporting one another is a positive way to move forward. :)
Thanks for being a great resource for writers, Patricia! Hope you have a great upcoming weekend.
