The Top Writing Links From Last Week Are On LitLinks: Share on X
Thanks as always, Elizabeth, for these great links. I noticed the one about some of the more recent scams that target authors. I think the writing community can be really helpful in preventing those scams from working. Whenever you see a new scam email, sharing it with other authors helps to make sure that those authors don't fall prey. The more we share, the more everyone is aware of the risks, as I see it.
That’s definitely a big help for other writers! The scammers have been out in force.
