Friday Link Love 10/24

Oct 24 2008

Friday is here and I’m sure all of you have been biting your nails waiting for this week’s Friday Link Love. Why? Because you love the cool and interesting links I post! At least I hope so. This week I have been bookmarking like crazy. In fact, there is quite a bit of overflow this week – links I bookmarked, but didn’t make it onto this post for one reason or another. I just might do an Overflow Link Love post sometime soon, I’d hate to see such good content go to waste.

This past week has been especially productive for me. I’m working on a new short fiction project that is really taking off. I did a very basic outline (read more about outlines in this post) that laid out the major events, a character list, and that was it. The story is really "writing" itself and I’m having a blast with the writing process. It’s during times like this that I know I hit on a really good idea because everything just "gels" together.

Anyway, now that it’s Friday, you can kick off your shoes and relax. And as always, have a safe and happy weekend!
