    Elizabeth – Great links as always! Funny, the first one that caught my eye was the one about building an author platform and how exhausting it is. AMEN! Such a tough balance between that and writing. Now to go to the rest of my Writing 101 class with Professor Spann Craig . ;-)

      Margot–It caught my eye quickly in my blog reader. :) Yes–totally exhausting! And that’s just the branding, not the writing!
