    Thanks, as always, Elizabeth. I always find such good pieces of wisdom here. There’s a lot this time on the business side of being a writer – all useful!

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigAugust 8, 2016

      Margot–An important part of being a writer…although most of us don’t care for it! Hope you have a great week, Margot.

  2. Alex J. CavanaughAugust 7, 2016

    Great list! I should read the one about how to write a poem as I’ve no idea.

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigAugust 8, 2016

      Alex–Lately, I’ve written a few poems as warmups. I’m not a very good poet. :(

  3. BridgetAugust 8, 2016

    Thanks so much for including us among these great posts. Love the idea of a mid-year analysis from Writers Write.
