when we experience great loss. The need to express ourselves in written form
can become a torrent of words. Audrey Frank, at The
Write Conversation, shares her experience with writing from this hard
place. She has some good insights on how to make sure those words are helpful
and not harsh.
2. We haven't had
many links recently on marketing. I found this article by Jane Friedman, at Publisher's

confiscating innocent people's money.
4. Rhonda Rhea posts
a devotional at The
Write Conversation entitled, "Now That's Alarming." I enjoy her
humorous take on things and how she leads into a more serious truth.
5. Spring and visions

distance. Here are 10 spring garden
tips to prepare for those stunning blooms.
