Elizabeth – A fabulous set of links as ever! I love the one about calling yourself a writer. I think thinking of ourselves as writers is a crucial way to have the perseverance we need.
Margot–If we write, I think we should own it. It can really help indicate to others that it’s important to us.
Love all these links! Thank you
