Please feel free to use, link to, or share
the resources listed below. They have provided me with great information
when I needed it, and are free for all to use. I have also provided
a list of books that I keep on my desktop, invaluable tomes that I
reach for constantly. These can be purchased online by clicking the
cover. Please be sure to check the Literary
Agents and Promotional Resources,
new listings here. If you know of a site that should be listed please
contact me with the
URL and a brief description. I will review the site, and if it belongs
here I'll happily add your link.
