WRITERLY WISDOM WEDNESDAY: Donna L Martin

The Virtual Bookcase

By Donna L Martin

If your home office bookcase looks anything like mine, it is crammed with all kinds of books on the craft of writing.  We can never have too many books on how to improve our writing.  But sometimes we  want to brush up on our writing skills and we're nowhere near home.  That's where trusty little ebooks step in to make sure we aren't missing our opportunities to grow as a writer.  Below are just a few of the many FREE ebooks about writing I've come across over the years that are now stored on my virtual bookcase...just waiting for me to come by, select one, and curl up with my Kindle in a comfy chair for a little ME time. 

Have you discovered your own FREE ebook favorites on the craft of writing I might have overlooked?  Let us know about them in the comments...

I've been writing since I was eight years old but only decided in 2010 to start writing professionally.

I write children's picture books, chapter books, and young adult novels as well as essays, poetry and anything else that interests me.  I am the host of the WRITERLY WISDOM series where authors and established writers give tips on the writing process as well as the host of my international FREE AUTHORS PROMOTION event held every May during my city's Children's Festival of Reading.

My blog is one way of connecting with the world around me and a better way of making new friends! You can leave a comment on one of my posts or you can reach me through any of my other links:
