I hope everyone had a lovely Valentine’s Day! Apparently in Finland it’s called “Friendship Day” which I think I like better. Anyway, in the spirit of Friendship, Love, and Presidents, here are some helpful and fun links I’ve come across in the past week.
On writing:
-From Alan Rinzler’s website, a look at how to work backstory into your scenes.
-From WritingWorld.com, a breakdown of the art of description by Anne Marble.
-From Through the Wardrobe, a handy list of tips for writing dialogue.
Just for fun:
-A hilarious commercial:
-A really fun, and slightly bizarre, music video by OK Go:
- Categories: Links, Random Fun

Thanks for the links! And very strange videos.
Laura, I guess the videos could be described as strange.
The commercial made me laugh, while the music video was just too odd not to share.
Oh wow! Waking up to see a man wrapped in towel. I’m awake now! Just kidding!!!
The commercials were so hilarious! *Still laughing*
Thank you for the links, Anna! Merry Monday to you.
This was fun! Thanks!
Nathalie, I’m glad this made your morning more pleasant.
I just love the end of that commercial: “I’m on a horse.”
You’re welcome, Catherine. Happy writing!
You’ve inspired a blog post!
