    Elizabeth – These are great links, as ever. I see a couple on writing a solid antagonist, which I sometimes think doesn’t get enough attention. Ooh, and a couple on showing, not telling, too – always useful!

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigFebruary 22, 2015

      Margot–Thanks! There were some good ones this week.

  2. Alex J. CavanaughFebruary 22, 2015

    I see Lynda’s article! Another great group of links.

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigFebruary 22, 2015
