I don't have any of my own yet Skip - but thanks for putting up the thread, excellent idea/resource.

[wordphix]

I definitely use dictionary.com all the time. Especially to find synonyms and new words. Great resources, I should make a list of useful pages I reference...

[Skip Slocum]

Well I was hoping for a little more participation. Maybe it got buried too quickly under the games. I'll drag this to the top of the pile and see if a few more folks find it. 

If you have links to share, please do.

If you ask the mods nicely, maybe they'll put it in the Authors' Resource Centre.

But does anyone go there normally?

We have a resource center?     Joking of course

It's a listing of thousands of literary magazines seeking submissions. Best of all, it is regularly updated. 

[Skip Slocum]

Nice.

"Besten Dank für diese" (I think that's how it's said.)

informally, we used to say: "Feelin'-dunk"

Here's another that could come in handy.
