    We’d prefer to keep out of the doctor’s office! Good list this week.

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigSeptember 20, 2015

      Alex–Me too! Thanks. :)

  2. Margot KinbergSeptember 20, 2015

    Fabulous links, as ever, Elizabeth – thanks. I love it that there are several about character development. It can be hard to balance that with a focus on the plot, but it’s important.

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigSeptember 20, 2015

      Margot–A lot of readers tend to come away from books talking more about the characters than the plot! You’re right…so important.

  3. Ryan LanzSeptember 20, 2015

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigSeptember 21, 2015
