As always, I love these links, Elizabeth – thank you. I’m glad to see several on getting through the writing life. It’s always helpful to learn from others how to manage writing, especially if you have a ‘day job.’
Always good to get inspiration from others on tackling the tough stuff. Hope you have a great week!
