Another great list!
Thanks, Alex!
There’s always such a great lineup of links here, Elizabeth – thanks! I’m happy to see there are some in-person book events starting up again. I like online events because they’re versatile and have a very wide reach. But there’s nothing like that face-to-face experience that you get at an in-person event. I hope that the pandemic will continue to ease, and we can continue to have more of them.
Let’s keep our fingers crossed, Margot!
Great list, Elizabeth. I agree with Margot. It’s nice to see some in-person events opening up.
Isn’t it? It feels very hopeful!
Another wonderful list. Thanks, Elizabeth.
Have a happy week, Staci!
Thank you, Elizabeth. I always appreciate your Sunday morning lists! 😊
Thanks for coming by, Gwen!
Thanks for always putting this list together :)
Thanks to you for visiting!
Thank you for another wonderful list, Elizabeth!
Thanks, Mae!
I’ve learned so much from my Sunday Twitterific reading!
I appreciate your coming by, Elizabeth! Glad the links were helpful. :)
Great links as usual. I really enjoyed Jane Friedman’s article.\
