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 do have an opportunity for my blog readers this week: a New York area conference, The Work Conference.  Attendance is limited to 30 writers because the conference provides access to industry-leading agents and publishers in a small group setting (attendees query first for acceptance to the conference).  Those who aren’t accepted still get feedback on their proposal.  There is a fee for the application, but my readers are offered a $10 discount: $40 instead of $50. That link is here.

    Thanks, as always, for these great links, Elizabeth. Lots of terrific ones about using social media this time, and I think that’s great. There’ s so much social media out there that it’s hard to choose which outlets to use, and to focus your efforts.

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigNovember 8, 2015

      Margot–So true…if we stretch ourselves too thin on social media, it’s so easy to burn out.

  2. Alex J. CavanaughNovember 8, 2015

    Thanks for including the one Lynda did for the IWSG site.
    And we are set to go for 5:00 am Eastern tomorrow. Thanks again.

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigNovember 8, 2015

      Alex–Great! I’ll direct folks over tomorrow a.m. :)

  3. Sue ColettaNovember 9, 2015

    I’m late, which seems to be the norm lately. Excellent links, as usual. You really have a talent for finding exactly what I need.

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigNovember 9, 2015

      Sue–Glad you found some helpful links and thanks for coming by!

  4. Lauren De LannierNovember 20, 2015
