Great list!
Thanks, Alex!
Thanks, Elizabeth! These links are great, as always. I like it that there are some having to do with different sorts of writing (screenwriting, poetry, etc.). I think we can learn from other people's writing. I think that about non-fiction, too.
I think it’s one of the best ways to learn the craft!
Thank you, Elizabeth, for mentioning my post. And thank you for all the other great posts. I've much to read. 😊
Great post, Gwen! Hope you found some helpful articles. :)
