The Top Writing Links From Last Week Are On Twitterific: Share on X
Thank you, Elizabeth, for another great list of helpful links.
My pleasure, Gwen!
You always have the most useful links here, Elizabeth! I’m especially drawn to the one about getting rights back. It’s a very long, frustrating story, but that’s what’s happened to my first novel. I’ve been trying to think of how to go about getting my rights back, and I’m sure that article will be helpful!
I hope it’s helpful, Margot! I’ve gotten my rights back (various ones, and not all of them) from Penguin and from Midnight Ink. It’s not the most fun process, but the rewards are worth it.
Great links! Michael’s post at the IWSG last week on writing spaces was also good.
Oh gosh, I might have missed that one. I was traveling last Monday…thanks for the heads-up!
Thanks for another great list, Elizabeth!
Thanks, Joan!
