The Top Writing Links From Last Week Are On Twitterific: Share on X
Thank you, Elizabeth, for another great list. 😊
Thanks for coming by, Gwen!
Thanks for including Dave’s post at the IWSG! Hope you aren’t snowed under.
We’re iced under, actually, ha. Fingers crossed we won’t lose power. Hope things are okay in your part of the state.
Another great list, Elizabeth! Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure, Joan!
Thank you for the lovely links and mention, Elizabeth.
Great post, John! Hope you have a good week. :)
Thanks for including Story Empire on your wonderful list.
Thanks to Story Empire for being a resource for writers. :)
As always, Elizabeth, thank you for the great list and for including some Story Empire posts!
Great posts from Story Empire!
Thanks for another great curated list!
Thanks for coming by, Staci!
I know I’m a little late to the party this time, Elizabeth, but I always love checking out these links! I especially like the article about not needing to finish every book you start. I’m one of those people who feels pressure to complete what she start, but it’s true that not every manuscript should see the light of day.. Tough to balance that with not wanting to flit from WIP to Wip.
I had several WIPs from the 90s that haven’t seen the light of day…and nor should they, ha! I think it’s okay to have some books that we toss to the wayside along the way. :)
Hi Elizabeth!
Thank you for this list.
I linked to this post as part of the Informational Monday on the IWSG Facebook page.
Thank you, Michelle! That’s so kind of you!
Thanks for taking the time to create these lists, Elizabeth.
Thanks for coming by, Beem!
