Mool cool helps for writers

My friend and novelist, Patti Lacy has a writing contest every month on her site. The winner receives a $15 Barnes and Noble gift certificate!

Keith Drury's excellent book, A Brief Guide For Writers, helped me tremendously. "Packed with dozens of tips and hints, this book gives step-by-step instructions on preparing a manuscript so it will shine and be noticed by editors and publishers."

And, if you are interested in mystery writing, Barb Early has some fascinating photos on her blog of a trip to the Writers' Police Academy. She also has a blog just for mystery writers.

Blessings on you as you write for your Audience of One, the King of Kings and only Good Shepherd.

  1. Ooh, I'll have to check out these links later, when I have more time. I hope you're still having your contest because I put up a link to it. :-) Have a great day!
