Twitterific Writing Links

by Elizabeth S. Craig, @elizabethscraig

Twitterific writing links are fed into the Writer’s Knowledge Base search engineBlog (developed by writer and software engineer Mike Fleming) which has over 30,000 free articles on writing related topics. It’s the search engine for writers.

I’m going to take a short summer blog break and will go dark until July 12th, when I’ll return with an extended Twitterific. :)  Early wishes for a Happy Independence Day for my blog readers in the States.

    I need the one on finding one’s audience on Twitter. Trying to build up my following there.

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigJune 28, 2015

      Alex–I’m sure you’ll do a great job there! I like Twitter, although I’m a lurker there.

  3. Sue ColettaJune 28, 2015

    Enjoy your time off, Elizabeth, and thank you for the excellent Twitterific links! There are so many I want to dive into.

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigJune 28, 2015

      Sue–Thanks for coming by!

  4. SusanneJune 28, 2015

    Have a good time off, Elizabeth.

    I periodically “detox” from the internet and it’s so helpful.

  5. Margot KinbergJune 29, 2015

    I love diving into these links, Elizabeth. I noticed one this time on Scrivener, something I’ve not (yet) tried. But people who have tell me they love it. Wonder if I’m missing something…
