The Top Writing Links From Last Week Are On Twitterific: Share on X
Thanks for another great list, Elizabeth.
Thanks for coming by, Joan!
These are, as always, really helpful links, Elizabeth! I’m glad to see the one about getting your indie/self-pub book into libraries. Libraries are such great places to reach out for things like ‘meet the author,’ introducing new books, and so on. In fact, it’s spooky timing, because one of the things on my list to do this week is go to our local library and start the process of having an author visit there. This is a good kick in the pants to go do it.
Libraries are usually pretty welcoming to writers! I’ve done a few events there (co-visits with other authors). Good luck with it!
Thanks for the great list.
Hope you have a great week, CS!
Thanks for the fabulous links, Elizabeth!
My pleasure, Mae!
