...a roundup of free resources and excellent articles of interest to writers.

Weiland will send you a PDF of this nifty handbook for crafting and troubleshooting your book characters.

- yWriter computer program for authors This is an awesomely cool software I think I've mentioned before. It's like Scrivener, but free. Can't beat that!

I wish I owned a copy of it now that I have my own home, so it's a good thing it's freely available (and searchable!) online. If you have never heard of this book, I recommend you check it out. It's short, interesting, easy to understand, and even amusing!
Have a suggestion? Please drop me a line with a link to the resource and I may include it in another Writerly Wednesday!
