The Top Writing Links From Last Week Are On LitLinks: Share on X
Thanks for including the IWSG post from last week.
Another great post from the IWSG!
Thanks, Elizabeth, for these great links, as always. I learn every time I'm here. The link that got my attention this time was the one about writing spaces. I think everyone has a different way of settling down to write, but for me, it's important to have my space that's just for writing. It doesn't have to be a whole room or a building like a 'writing shed.' But it does have to be dedicated to writing, at least for me. Everyone's different, though…
That’s the way I am, too. Just a small area. :)
