GREAT RESOURCES FOR WRITERS

My forum buddy batman1101 recently posted a helpful link to download great e-books for writers. If you haven't already seen it, check out the thread link below --- but hurry ... it's a time limited offer and you need to provide your email (you can opt-out later if you decide to):

.

Now, I hope to show you how I like to start with one website or other resource link and let it lead me to sundry other valuable resources. In batman1101's great share, I took the link below to find even more resources for writers...

STEP 1 - Go to the page on this site below and follow the instructions I post at each additional step:

Magic Button :

Code:

.
https://fictiontoolbox.com/resources
.

STEP 2 - On Site Resources: This section gives you 5 links to resources to build a better story. Click each of the links to see detailed information. If you have a Print to PDF app installed (I use Microsoft Print to PDF but there are others --- just do a search) you can use the Ctrl+P keys on your keyboard to create a PDF for each of the 5 resources.

STEP 3 - Thesarus Books: You can click each link to see more information about the particular thesarus. If it's one you want, go over to {{{Blocked by Omni Potens, reason: reports from LEGIT GB STARTER}}}.org to search for a download link using the title. I remember sharing download links to a few of these thesauri in earlier posts that I got from {{{Blocked by Omni Potens, reason: reports from LEGIT GB STARTER}}}). In addition to {{{Blocked by Omni Potens, reason: reports from LEGIT GB STARTER}}}, also check for downloads at PDFDrive.com or other quality e-book download sites.

NOTE: For the {{{Blocked by Omni Potens, reason: reports from LEGIT GB STARTER}}}.org site, you may be re-directed to a variety of their "sister" host sites to get a download. For the downloads I provide links to below, you're sent to the {{{Blocked by Omni Potens, reason: reports from LEGIT GB STARTER}}}.africa site.

Or get them here...

NOTE: The videos are set to auto-run and the sound on the intro music is nerve-jarringly loud (at least on my computer it was) so you may first want to adjust the sound level. Also, instead of watching right away, I used IDM to download the videos for viewing later.

This screen-shot is to show you that I enrolled successfully. Just sign up and you're ready to start learning the storytelling blueprint to bestselling success!

I hope this information serves to help some of you in your writing or self-publishing projects.

You can find a treasure trove of useful stuff to download by starting at square one (a site you "happen upon" or is shared on the forum) but don't stop there ... you will find that the right research will inform you of a wealth of additional sites and resources.

A little extra effort will lead you to amazing finds!

Take care!

Wow, this is awesome! You're an inspiration to us all, Layna. Thanks and max reps sent :)

Awesome share Layena,

Thanks

Thank you Layna and max reps for your hard work.

The PDF link for “How to...Good Fiction” on PDFDrive led me to an 18GB treasure trove:

Magic Button :

https://anonymiz.com/?https%3A%2F%2Firon...wnloads%2F

Also, once I’m able to get back to my writing, I would definitely be interested in a 1yr GB for One Stop for Writers.

PS: The entire thesauri, especially “Emotion, “Emotion Amplifiers” and “Emotional Wounds” volumes, would also be great for Copywriters.

[layna61524]

@GWMO: Wow! Talk about serendipity! Thank you for coming back here to share that great news.

I'm going to grab those downloads right now. I rarely download from the links I find to share because my 5 TB external drive is groaning under the weight of my "finds." But I have 2 more spanking brand new ones waiting in the wings! It won't be much longer before I can begin to break them in!

And you're right --- a GB for access to that One Stop Writer site materials would be terrific! The only GB seller I have any long-term experience with (and would deal with) is ToniMontana. Maybe if this is something that can be done, he will see this thread and chime in. He can tell us the specifics (how many need to participate and at how much per person) so we can get the ball rolling but that would be up to him.

Max reps to you for your helpful post.

Thanks for the resources and reps added!

[ohmganesh]

what a treasure trove here! Thank you Layna! Repped of course

[layna61524]

@actionguy and ohmganesh: You're welcome. Enjoy!


for liking my share!

@layna61524 >>> really appreciate another valuable share! MAX reps for your efforts.

I hope to download as much as possible before the links die or are moved. I need to also free up some more space on my hard-drive for these downloads because my external hard-drive is full and I'm having an issue with the connection for my USB port, which is really a bummer because I can't download nor access what's stored on my external hard-drives.

@GWMO >>> looks like you provided an awesome link to some more good stuff! Unfortunately, I'm getting "403 Forbidden" error message. I guess the increase in traffic got their attention... MAX reps to you for that contribution.
