  1. So many interesting topics this time, Elizabeth! Thanks as ever for gathering these. Funny that there are a few on blurbs: that’s always such a challenge, isn’t it?

  2. Thanks, Elizabeth! Loved Emily’s article on “The Gone Girl with the Dragon Tattoo on the Train.” What a great title and very interesting on “Girl” titles. Maybe I need to rethink my WIP… :O)
