Thanks for including the IWSG post about WEP!
Another great IWSG post!
As always, Elizabeth, this is a great set of links, and very helpful. I’m finding myself drawn to the one about writing a novel using a three-act structure. I never thought about it that way, but I can see it. That’ll be really interesting to read!
It’s a great post and an interesting way to write. Hope you have a great week!
