Links for Writers, for Shoppers, for whateverererers

Today is all about Links!

First; from yesterdays post - Support our Blogging Community Artisans & Local Community Mom & Pop shops.

Then Literary Agent Nathan Bransford is having a contest on his blog - post your first paragraph of your WIP. I did it, just for fun. My first paragraph for my WIP, Secret Graces, is not the first paragraph for my chapter 1, but it's the first paragraph of the novel-if you've read TG, you remember the first pargraph is sort of like a surreal dream thing or voice(s) calling on the wind or whatever -it's the paragraph on the trailer. Anyway, it's just a fun thing to do even if you don't win!

Go by Gumbo Writer's blog - she has posted something for Vodka Mom for the Dove Self Esteem Fund --(In Tender Graces, Dove soap is almost a character itself in the book!)

Stephen Craig Rowe is struggling with cancer, but he still takes the time to say something nice about R&T, and me, and Angie....he and Barry of An Explorer's Life are in inspiration to me! Go by and visit his blog. He is a beautiful painter - and his link is included below in the community blog shopping!

And Brian of The New Author has a question and answer session with the co-editors/publishers of the Rose & Thorn - which is Angie Ledbetter and Yours Truly!

That's it for now . . . Y'all go do the day . . .

Namaste
