Thanks for all the great links. If I’m struggling with something, I always know where to go to find links to helpful info.
Glad it helps! Hope you have a great week, Natalie!
I need to read those 8 things not to do in a query letter and see if they are on my list, too. Although not sending what I ask for still tops my list.
That’s got to be so incredibly frustrating!
Thanks for including our post by Amy Collins on your excellent list!
Thanks for being a resource for writers!
Thank you for all the great links! :)
Thanks for coming by, Ashleigh!
