"What are the
best things in life, and when are you going
to get around to
whispering or shouting them?"
- Ray
Bradbury,
Zen in the Art of
Writing
Writers must write as firefighters
must fight fires and teachers, teach. And for me, as one who is very
passionate about writing, I've spent a lot of time writing, reading,
researching, and pursuing those things that will help me become a better
writer.
On this page I am going to do
something for you that I wish I would have very quickly found when I
started writing. I am going to try my best to put all of those great
resources here in a, 'Library of Literary Helps'. Now I am able to do
this because of many others, like me and you, who love to do what we are
doing, and have already put many of these tools together for you. I am
linking to many great places here and I would appreciate it, if when you
find something that really helps you out, drop them a line and say that
SamTheWriter sent you over.
Now,
I am going to attempt to organize
these great tools as well as I can, so feel free to bookmark this page
so you can come back here for quick access to the Library. How will I
organize?
