Twitterific
by Elizabeth S. Craig, @elizabethscraig
Twitterific is a compilation of all the writing links I shared the previous week.
The links are fed into the
Writer’s Knowledge Base
search engine (developed by writer and software engineer
Mike Fleming
) which has over 16,000 free articles on writing-related topics. Sign up for our
free newsletter
for monthly writing tips and interviews with top contributors to the WKB or
like us on Facebook
.
It's looking like tomorrow is going to be a catch-up day for me, so I'll be back to posting on my usual schedule on Wednesday. Hope everyone will have a great start to their week!
