Top writing links from last week: Share on X
    1. Alex–Whenever I come across a good article on writers and depression, I share it on Twitter. And I *always* get a response back from writers. It really seems to be a problem many writers encounter at least at some point through their career. And I’ve watched as advice in the articles has shifted over the last 5 years…away, most recently, from medication and into lifestyle and therapeutic options.

  1. Oh, Elizabeth, these are some great links! But then, of course, they always are… I really need to read that one about turning criticism into practical things to do. I think we all learn we need to develop thick skins as writers. But it helps if we can look at criticism as a part of the revision process, if that makes sense.

  2. Hey Elizabeth,
    Looks like a very cool and very comprehensive list. I have to dive into it, for sure there are a couple of gems to be found. Thanks a bunch for including me!

  3. Loved the article “Advice for Authors from a Bookseller’s Perspective.” Lots of great information there. Thanks for sharing, Elizabeth, and thanks for including me. :O)
