These are some great links, Elizabeth, as ever. Thanks! I’m drawn to the one about how to fix a boring story. When my work isn’t going well, my first instinct is to hit the ‘delete’ button and start over. But sometimes, that’s not necessary. There are good fixes out there, and they can help save a story that has a lot of potential.
Thanks for coming over, Margot! And you’re so right–sometimes we can rewrite problematic stories. Hope you have a great week!
Great links. The ones for mystery writers especially appeal to me. Thanks for compiling them for us every week.
And thanks to you for visiting, Natalie! I do enjoy the mystery links, too.
Thank you, Elizabeth, for featuring Joan Hall and myself.
So happy to do so!
Thank you so much, Elizabeth, for featuring the Story Empire links.
Thanks, Joan, for being a resource for writers!
Another great post! Thank you very much.
Hope you have a great week, Gwen!
What wonderful resources. Thank you so much.
