Thanks so much to all who participated in this week's Tuesday Writing Essentials... I was very happy to see a whole lot of excellent contributions - and also, while I was reading them all (well, almost all - got a few to get back to yet) - to see that some people have already been following the links and commenting as they go. I smiled every single time I saw 'you' there.

Please do, if you stop by, leave a comment... it won't get overlooked, no matter how old the article, I promise!

Thanks Flit,

You have done this very neatly. I have read few articles but now I can easily check them all.

Uh, would you be interested in being the Chairman of Gather. I think they could really benefit from your expertise. How smart. You have outdone yourself.
lynn a. May 20, 2008, 8:22pm UTC
This is one of the best articles or series on articles there is on Gather. The other is John Philipp's. Might have incorrectly spelled the name. I'm sorry if I did. People are pretty honest. The really do offer the best of the best here.
Flit, this listing is a valuable resource. Well done, indeed!

Rose Lamatt May 20, 2008, 8:58pm UTC
Flit, I haven't offered anything, but I promise I will spend the next few days reading these submissions. This is such a great idea and you have done a wonderful job at organizing it. Thanks.

I'm exhausted right now but really you did a great service to us all. I will go back tomorrow morn when my mind once again is not on pause.

A few of the links were broken ...fixed now
This looks fantastic, Flit! Good work! Now, if I can just find time to come back and read them...

this is really cool and I bet it took you a while too
Elsie Duggan May 21, 2008, 6:59pm UTC
I love the way this is laid out Flit, even I can find my way around it. Thanks for including my piece and have read a lot of the others, but will read more of them, you have made finding things so easy.

Great job flit. Thanks for the acknowledgments.

Yes, impressive indeed. This is a natural feature in the Recommending Other Gather Writers group.
Everybody that reads this comment: MAKE SURE YOU READ VICKY'S Ferris Wheel of Time.

It is evocative and lovely and you will not be disappointed.

Good call on that one, Flit!

DISCLAIMER Yes, Vicky is a friend of mine, but trust me on this -- it's one of the best things I have EVER read -- on Gather or anywhere else.
