The Top Writing Links From Last Week Are On Twitterific: Share on X
Another wonderful list, Elizabeth, thank you! It’s always a delight going through your suggested blogs. Have a great day! 😊
So glad it’s useful for you!
Thanks so much for another wonderful list of links, Elizabeth. I really appreciate you including one of mine in the mix.
Great post, Staci!
These are great links as always, Elizabeth, so thanks. I’m so glad there’s one here about hybrid and graphic novels. I think sometimes people underestimate them, but they are popular. And research shows that young people do get reading benefits from reading them. They’re not traditional, so it seems as though young readers aren’t really, well, reading. But they are, and honestly, anything that gets people reading is, I think, a good thing.
It’s just a different sort of reading, isn’t it? Like audio is.
Thanks for another great list, Elizabeth!
Thanks for coming by, Joan!
Terrific links, Elizabeth. Thank you.
Happy to share them, John!
Thanks, Elizabeth for another grand list of resources. And a special thank you for including some Story Empire folks!
More great posts from Story Empire!
Another fine list, Elizabeth. Thank you for sharing.
Hope you have a great week, Beem!
