Top Writing Links of the Week on Twitterific Share on X
Elizabeth – Oh, there are so many different kinds of good links here! I’ve got to check out that link on fanfic, since I think a lot of young people are getting into writing that way. It could be a very useful classroom tool.
Margot–I think you’re right…fan fic has really become a gateway for a lot of people to become writers. Hope you can find ways to implement that in the classroom.
Some great links!
Thanks, Alex!
