FOR WRITERS
Over the years, I’ve read a lot of craft books and scoured the Internet for writing advice, useful tools, and other writerly goodness. For what it’s worth, I’ve composed a list of my favorite resources. I hope you’ll find them helpful!
Side note: writing is a hugely personal endeavor. Please know that what has worked for me, might not work for you (and that’s okay!)
