Every great writer needs the writing tools of the trade in order to get their work done. I prepared this page so I could share with others tools that I have found helpful in one way or another.Writing Resources ~ Books (I know a book on how to write a book may sound redundant but trust me if you want a great finished product, especially if you are self-publishing, these tools will help your finished product look like you are backed by a publishing house).
