Because I’m closing down one of my other blogs, I thought I’d pass the links I had listed there on to you here (partly for my benefit, but partly for yours, too). They’re worth mentioning.
I’ve listed many of these in my resource margins on the right, but I thought I’d highlight them here (all together in one place). These are some of the best web sites I’ve found in the categories listed below.
If you have others, please comment. I’d love to learn about and pass along more helpful resources!
‘Til next time,
Joan
