LitLinks

LitLinks are fed into the Writer’s Knowledge Base search engine (developed by writer and software engineer Mike Fleming) which has over 70,000 free articles on writing related topics. It’s the search engine for writers. While you’re there, check out the Writer’s Digest award-winning Hiveword novel organizer.

Have you visited the WKB lately?  Check out the new redesign where you can browse by category, and sign up for free writing articles, on topics you choose, delivered to your email inbox!  Sign up for the Hiveword newsletter here. Follow the WKB on Facebook here.

LitLinks is going on summer vacation! I’m using this time to sync the feature with my BlueSky links, which will make the process more efficient going forward. My Monday blog posts will continue as normal. See you back here in July with more helpful writing links.
