    Elizabeth – I always look forward Writing 101 :-). Thanks as ever for these links. I’m getting a message today, I think, because there are several good-looking ones on just plunging in and writing, instead of placing too much emphasis on planning. Hmm….. for an outliner like me that’s something to think about…

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigSeptember 21, 2014

      Margot–It’s a real balance, I think. If we *over*plan, then we open the possibility of freezing up at the keyboard (always with that perfect story in our head to live up to!) But I’m guilty of under-planning, too.

    Off to check out Roz’s self pubbing post – she’s always brilliant! :)
