  3. Margot KinbergMay 5, 2013

    Elizabeth – As ever, a really rich resource of links, for which thanks. It’s interesting that there are a few about proofing this week. That is so important, especially for those who self-publish. I’m glad people are talking about it.

  4. Elizabeth Spann Craig/Riley AdamsMay 5, 2013

    Thanks so much for coming by, y’all!

  5. Kelsey BeachMay 5, 2013

    Thank you for all the excellent advice. I was impressed by the first 5-10, then realized there were about 50 more to go through. This is extremely helpful for the budding writer.
