Jessica Strawser writes on the importance of the writer community in “5 Reasons Fellow Writers Are Essential to Your Writing Life.” No one understands the process authors go through better than other writers.
“What Goodreads’ Explosive Growth Means for Writers and the Broader Economy” in Forbes details how Goodreads can be a powerful tool for authors in connecting with readers and other writers.
