Some useful links

For today's blog, I'm going to share a few useful links:

Write Or Die  - this link is wonderful for getting you jump started for writing. I like to set it for 500 words and have the timer at 10 minutes.

nanowrimo  - have you ever wanted to write a novel, but haven't? Well, this challenge will prod you into starting your very own novel. 30 days + 50,000 words = a lot of fun!

thesaurus - do you need to know a different word for well...different? This is the site that can help you find synonyms.

duotrope - this lovely website helps you track your submissions for free!

Well, that's all for now! Until next time.

Before I continue with this entry, I must share what was said in the comments of this video (You can watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqz7oaTyAlQ&feature=share&list=UUmmZyOotBYjOoENaUX0oI8g ): TheLovelylostsoul said:   I was wondering if you could expand on this quote and idea to make it a longer video, to show that it really DOES exist, if in our hearts if nothing else. ??????? Just something I've always wanted from my really "Merlin is my life" Merlin vidders. Just to show that the legends do go on and effect us all, because I know I've been effected by this show.
