GREAT ADVICE FOR WRITERS

One of the reasons I love the children's writing community is the generosity of writers & editors, both debut and seasoned veterans. I have done a number of writing advice posts before, 39 to be exact. And today's is #40.

So link me up, Spock...

1. Ralph Fletcher's Tips for Young Writers...and for us old writers too:)
   
   
2. Nancy Lamb's 6 Ways to Make Your Book a Page-Turner
   
   
3. Darcy Pattison's amazing blog chock full of so much advice I can't pick just one so here is the archive and be careful, you can spend a whole week here. Read, take a break and write following Darcy's spot-on advice, and then go read some more.
   
   
4. Kim Blank's Wordiness, Wordiness, Wordiness List
   
   
5. Harold Underdown's Getting Out of the Slush Pile and other fab Articles for Writer's
