  1. Elizabeth – As always, a lovely set of links. I like the fact that there are several on character backstory development. I think that’s always a good thing to work on, as it can be tricky to create fully-rounded characters without ‘information overload.’

  2. Every week I look forward to your Twitterific Writing Links. You never disappoint. Thank you so much for including my post. Again, I’m humbled to be listed among such amazing authors.

  3. Thanks for all these great links, and for the mentions :)

    I had lunch today with a writer friend who hadn’t heard of your blog. Of course I told her she MUST follow you!
