A clutch of free resources for writers:
techie widgets, helpful lists on ideas
and writer's block, useful links,
and my not-so-humble opinions about poetry.
All these I've created for my own use and hope will be helpful
for others. If you're looking for professional editing,
feedback, or coaching, please

professional site.
 Finding
ideas

my favourite techniques. |

 Writer's
Block-busting
Ideas for getting rid of that regular curse: writer's
block. When the only breakthrough you think you'll have
is your head breaking through the computer screen - try
these. |

Writers' widgets
A toolbar to sort out your layout and styles, useful
templates for Word and Excel, and a quick tutorial on
Styles and formatting in Word - if you're not
using this, your life's about to change.

The Publishing
Machine
A free database to do all your admin for you: the machine
reminds you about competitions, tells you which publishers
to send your writing to, writes your letters, keeps
track of your progress, and calculates your tax.

 Poetry
manifesto
Angered by the slow death of poetry, revolted by what's
espoused as "poetry" in magazines and competitions,
I set out my manifesto for bringing poetry back to life.

 Useful
links
Language reference, names, treasure-troves of pictures,
and sources of inspiration. |
