Writers’ Roundup: December 3

My first big project at the new job launches Monday! So it’s been a busy week around here.

Yet I still make time for Google Reader and Twitter links (barely). My favorites from this week:

• If you need help creating a Facebook page for your author brand or book, The Creative Penn offers a basic guide.

• Jody Hedlund suggests four ways to find a critique partner. It’s easier said than done, which is why this post is so helpful.

• Ideas at Tackling The Globe about what to buy the globetrotter in your life this holiday season.

• Royalty rates explained, brought to you by literary agent Rachelle Gardner.

• When should you start revising your manuscript? Answers from Mary Carroll Moore.

• And finally, love this post from Mary Morris (still my favorite travel writer, even after all the travel reading I’ve done) about her two goals as a traveler.

That’s all, folks! Enjoy the weekend.
