QWERTY Craft Tips

Welcome to Episode 23 of the QWERTY Writing Life Podcast with Joy E. Rancatore and Mea Smith! Thanks for joining us for another extra special episode recorded at our alma mater, William Carey University. If you missed Episode 22, that’s okay! These two don’t build on each other. We’re answering different questions for the students we had the honor of speaking to. This week we’re sharing our very best writing craft tips and sharing some favorite resources. Here are links to the ones we mention!
