Sticky: Skip's Show and Tell
« on: October 08, 2012, 05:05:19 PM »
Skip's Show and Tell

This will be a continuation of, ‘What’s on your Link-List’.
http://www.mywriterscircle.com/index.php?topic=33128.0

This thread will be a repository of links that are useful to writers.
What we'll try to do is scan the forum for all those threads with useful links to information, we'll copy the link here, minus all the conversations those threads garnered.

Renamed after our beloved Skip. Gone but never forgotten xx
A lovely idea given to us by Wolfe. He would have been made up by not only this suggestion but who it came for.  Lots of yeeeehawing down the Mod halls.
