cornerofmadnessWriters’ Digest’s 101 best website edition came out and I decided to include some of the ones I liked here and want to check out when I’m somewhere other than dial up. I decided to just slap this out my various writers comms since so many of my flist are writers. I thought you'd enjoy.

Jc-schools.net/write/create.htm – prompt generator accompanied by a dancing pencil
Nanowrimo.org – what can I say? I find this so darn helpful, every year and I never though I would. I thought the idea was dumb until I tried it
Seventhsanctum.com/generate.php?genname=writechallenge - this allows you to construct writing challenges for yourself. How can I not be intrigued?
Sixsentences.blogspot.com - write a story in six sentences, for that practicing to be precise with your words.
Facebook.com – can you believe it? they were talking about using it to promote your book and to network and I have to say a professional author HAS commented on some of the ideas I’ve tossed up there. (Former Linkster Terry Wilson’s daughter Justine Musk)
Sfwa.org/beware - this is a place that helps SF/Fantasy writers avoid the scammers…since it didn’t mention it, I’m assuming this place ISNT members only like much of SFWA is
