Resources I love!
My go-to folk for all things marketing: Author Sensei Do visit their site!
For all things rhetorical – figarospeech.com
Jay Heinrichs is a friend and an almost infinite resource – and we haven’t decided who’s wittier or the better punster. Check out his books Word Hero and its siteWordHero.org and Thank You For Arguing and its site ThankYouForArguing.com - look for the new edition, coming soon.
I’ve also found Melissa Foster helpful. Her books can be found here:melissafoster.com but also check out the World Literary Cafe, which networks authors and readers.
I’m an avid chessplayer, and have edited some chess books. Two places I recommend are Susan Polgar’s blog, SusanPolgar and Hanon Russell’s site, RussellEnterprises .
