I like the new tweet button, Elizabeth. As usual, you’ve managed to capture some amazing posts. Thank you!
As always, Elizabeth, this is a great group of links! I like it that there are several about staying, well, sane and seeing a writing project through. It can get overwhelming. Thanks as ever.
Science fiction and vampires? I haven’t seen those two elements together since the movie Lifeforce.
