So, I go to Twitter. And because it’s been over a week, maybe two, a GAZILLION little tweets have rolled by. And at first, I get a little panicky. Egads! What have I missed? The secret to the universe may have been tweeted and where was I? I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO DOESN’T KNOW.
But then I breathe into a paper bag and notice that a lot of tweets are things like, “meet me at Pete’s-it’s on the corner of 4th and Lex” and I figure that the secret of the universe was probably not divulged at a bar in New York.
Still, I do find a couple writerly gems and save these sparkly posts to read for later. That is where Thursday’s Three comes in. Here are a few sites you might want to check out. And best of all, you don’t have to go through a panic attack to get there.
For the freelancer who wants to make more money, Kelly James-Enger has a wonderful blog, Dollars and Deadlines. And you might want to check her sidebar, too. Lots of great freelance resources there.
For the wannabe published author, Alan Rinzler has a blog called The Book Deal that’s brimming with in-depth information on just about everything to do with the publishing business.
For the social-media challenged writer, check out Kristen Lamb’s Blog. I really like her love revolution, We Are Not Alone (#MyWANA on Twitter). BUT, she’s got plenty to say about all things social media, not just Twitter.
Okay, those are the top three of this week. I hope you find something you like. And please, people. If you happen on to the secret of the universe, shoot me an email.
Is it just me, or is your writing on a roll lately? What's in the koolaid over there anyway? Great post, great links! Thanks!
Dear Deb,Here's a hint: I'm MUCH too old for koolaid. :-)P.S. I wish my other writing was on a roll. Poor Rump's still waiting for his revenge!
Thanks for the links! Alas, no secret of the universe from me, although I strongly suspect margaritas are involved.
One secret of the universe is taking advantage of another's internet research. Thanks for the sharing the secret.
The secret to the universe.. ha, ha! :0I always feel like I am missing out on SOMETHING!
Lisa, I think you may be on to something!And you're welcome, Sally. Corey, don't we all feel that way when the something is writerly??? 😀
Great post, Cathy. I suspect COAS may have the secret to the universe but if she's anything like DQC, she's not sharing!
So much information, so little time…sigh…Thanks, Ms. Cathy! I've been on such a wonderful writing roll, I don't know when I'll have time to check them out, but thanks!
Vicky, wouldn't it be just like those gals to know the secret and not tell? After all we've done for them! ;-)Becky, the links will keep–write as long as you can when you've got a roll going!
Cathy, I can't thank you enough for these wonderful resources. You ARE awesome.
