Resources for Nonfiction Writers
All writers need a little support. As I've worked on gathering the best expert sources for Write
Nonfiction in November, and as I've networked with other writers and writing-related professionals at
conferences, I've begun gathering together a list of the best resources for writers. I list them here to
provide a bit of extra support for those who need it. I hope you find these resources as helpful as have
I.
Please check the Write Nonfiction in November website as well for resources.
There a few listed there that may not have made this list.
