The Top Writing Links From Last Week Are On Twitterific: Share on X
Thank you, Elizabeth, for another great list of resources. And thank you, for mentioning one of my posts. I hope you have a wonderful day. ❤️
Thanks for dropping by, Gwen! Great post.
Such interesting links this time, Elizabeth! Thanks, as always, for pulling them together. The one on family secrets is fascinating. I think people's writing is very much impacted by their backgrounds and histories, so it doesn't surprise me that family secrets would find their way into writing. What an interesting concept! The better we know ourselves, I suppose, the more authentic our writing becomes.
Family secrets are so very helpful in mysteries!
And of course, your great article at the IWSG!
Thanks so much for hosting me, Alex!!
ChatGPT scares me. Have those guys never seen The Terminator?
So very true, haha!!
