The Top Writing Links From Last Week Are On LitLinks: Share on X
You always share the best links here, Elizabeth! They're so helpful! I especially noticed the one about how readers use YouTube to discover books. I've got a YouTube channel that I use to spotlight books, and I've been thinking about how I might expand it and do different things with it. It's a popular social media, that's for sure!
It’s amazing how readers connect with books these days! And YouTube is great way to do it.
